[c-nsp] Good practices for peering

[Tantsura, Jeff]

Hi Vincent,

In case if your peer prepends towards you constructions like these would be
more suitable: 
^(_your peer)+$
^(_your peer)+(_your peer customer)+$  

Hope this helps,
Jeff

I'd say this is pretty common.. One thing I'd add is to check if the
remote AS you are peering with has downstream AS's and to permit them as
well if you want to take full advantage of the peering...:)

Some people use RAToolset and other utilities to build access lists etc.
from radb.  This is only useful if the information at radb is up to date
and accurate...

All the best,

Hi,

 

what are the configuration good practices when setting-up a peering with
another AS ?

 

I would do something like this:

 

router bgp <my_as>

 neighbor 194.88.108.33 remote-as <his_as>

 neighbor 194.88.108.33 password <some-password>

 neighbor 194.88.108.33 soft-reconfiguration inbound

 neighbor 194.88.108.33 filter-list 1 out

 neighbor 194.88.108.33 filter-list 2 in

 

ip as-path access-list 1 permit ^$

 

ip as-path access-list 2 permit ^<his_as>$

 

List 1 is to announce only my routes; list 2 is to make sure that the
other guy does not leak any route towards me.

 

Does it look good?

 

Vincent
