Configuring BGP VPNs on a PE

Configuring a static route within the VRF context
NOTE
This features is not supported on Brocade NetIron CES or Brocade NetIron CER devices.
To configure a static route entry in a VRF, enter the following command.
Brocade(config)# vrf blue
Brocade(config-vrf-blue)# ip route 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 10.1.1.1
Syntax: [no] ip route dest-ip-addr/mask-bits | next-hop-ip-addr [metric]
The dest-ip-addr is the route’s destination. The dest-mask is the network mask for the route’s
destination IP address. Alternatively, the user can specify the network mask information by entering
a forward slash followed by the number of bits in the network mask. For example, the user can
enter 10.0.0.0 10.255.255.0 as 10.0.0.0/.24. To configure a default route, enter 0.0.0.0 for
dest-ip-addr and 0.0.0.0 for dest-mask (or 0 for the mask-bits when the user specifies the address
in CIDR format). Specify the IP address of the default gateway using the next-hop-ipaddr parameter.
The next-hop-ip-addr is the IP address of the next-hop device (gateway) for the route.
The metric parameter specifies the cost of the route and can be a number from 1 – 16. The default
is 1.
NOTE
Note that the ip route command is executed at the “config-vrf” configuration level.
Configuring an IP Static interface route across VRFs
The user can configure an IP Static interface route from one VRF to an IP interface in a different
VRF. This is described in
“Configuring an IP Static interface route across VRFs” on page 636.
Configuring a backup Virtual Router for VRF using VRRPE
NOTE
This features is not supported on Brocade NetIron CES or Brocade NetIron CER devices.
With this release, the user can use the Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol Extended (VRRP-E) to
provide a redundant connection to a VRF instance in a BGP or MPLS VPN. This is accomplished by
assigning the VRRPE interface to a port that is also assigned to the VRF.
Configuration of VRRPE support for a VRF must be accomplished in the order described below.
1. Enable an interface
2. Enable VRF forwarding on the interface
3. Configure an IP address on the interface
4. Enable VRRP-E on the interface and set the VRID
5. Configure the IP address for the Virtual Router
