[j-nsp] as-path rewrite

[Doug Marschke]

You can also look at local-as private
private-Hide the local AS in paths learned from this peering

So in your example below if you define AS3 local as private it will be
stripped off when you advertise the route to a BGP neighbor.

Sorin,

The juniper "set loops 2" is the same as ciscos "allow-in". So What do not
use them if you use allows-in?

Try to use AS-overide on ebgp session. this has to be don on AS2 CE on
session to global instance.

"local-as" do not solve your problem. This do not overwrite real AS. thay
just add "virtual" AS in between neighbors. If you define AS3 as local AS
between AS 1 and AS 99, on path you will see "1 3 99 2".

Rewrittink of AS-PATH is impossible. And this is good. Let imagine World
wide inconsistency. AS pre RFC1771 AS-PATH attribute is used to AVOID LOOPS.
So any misteak here can ...

The other concept is to as customer to:
do not advertize prefixes lerned from VPN to Internet connection (wuith AS1
on path)
create aggregate route on CE in AS2 which represent whole AS1.

Sorin, are you work for ROMTELECOM?
