Configuring IPv6 MBGP

47

The backdoor parameter changes the administrative distance of the route to this network from the
EBGP administrative distance (20 by default) to the Local BGP weight (200 by default), thus tagging
the route as a backdoor route.

The weight <num> parameter specifies a weight to be added to routes to this network.

Enabling redistribution of directly-connected multicast routes into MBGP

To redistribute a directly-connected multicast route into MBGP enable redistribution of
directly-connected routes into MBGP, using a route map to specify the routes to be redistributed.
Here is an example.

BigIron RX(config)# access-list 10 permit 2001:100::/32

BigIron RX(config)# route-map mbgpmap permit 1

BigIron RX(config-routemap mbgpmap)# match ipv6 address 10

BigIron RX(config-routemap mbgpmap)# exit

BigIron RX(config)# router bgp

BigIron RX(config-bgp-ipv6m)# redistribute connected route-map mbgpmap

The first command configures an ipv6 ACL for use in the route map. The ACL matches on the
destination network for the route to be redistributed. The next four commands configure a route
map that matches on routes to the multicast network specified in ipv6 ACL 10. The device
redistributes routes that match the route map into MBGP.

Syntax: [no] redistribute [connected | static] [metric <num>] [route-map <map-name>]

The connected parameter indicates that you are redistributing routes to directly attached devices
into MBGP.

The static parameter indicates that you are redistributing static mroutes into MBGP.

The metric <num> parameter changes the metric. You can specify a value from 0 – 4294967295.
The default
is 0.

The route-map <map-name> parameter specifies a route map to be consulted before redistributing
the routes into MBGP.

NOTE

The route map you specify must already be configured.

Configuring static IPv6 multicast routes

To configure static IPv6 multicast routes, enter a command such as the following.

BigIron RX(config)# ipv6 mroute 8eff::0/32 4fee:2343:0:ee44::1

If you configure more than one static multicast route, the BigIron RX Router always uses the most
specific route that matches a multicast source address. Thus, if you want to configure a multicast
static route for a specific multicast source and also configure another multicast static route for all
other sources, you can configure two static routes.

Syntax: [no] ipv6 mroute <ipv6-addr> <ipv6-mask> [<next-hop-ipv6-addr> | ethernet <slot/port>

| ve <num> | null0] [<cost>] [distance <num>]

The ipv6-addr and ipv6-mask parameters specifies the PIM source for the route.

The ethernet <slot/port> parameter specifies a physical port.
