[j-nsp] Filtering rib-group imported direct routes?

[Hugo Slabbert]

Mark's message already covered the rib-group interface routes option, but I 
thought I'd chime in with the option of doing this through instance-import 
under the FBF itself without rib-groups.

Sorry; sent this earlier but from a non-list address.  Original message 
follows below:
----------

You can apply import policy to rib-groups or otherwise use instance-import 
in the FBF.  Either one gives you more granularity than just straight-up 
interface route leaking.

For policy on rib-groups, you would do something like:

routing-options {
    interface-routes {
        rib-group {
            inet fbf-groups;
        }
    }
    ...
    rib-groups {
        fbf-groups {
            import-rib [ inet.0 lb1.inet.0 ]
            import-policy lb1-default-direct;
        }
    }
}
...
policy-options {
    policy-statement lb1-default-direct {
        term direct {
            from protocol direct;
            from interface xe-1/0/0.0
            then accept;
        }
        then reject;
    }
}

instance-import is more granular still.  Disclaimer: I've only used 
instance-import to leak routes from virtual-router instances to FBFs; I 
have not used it to leak routes from inet.0 to an FBF, so take this with a 
grain of salt.

For that you would skip the rib-groups and instead would do something like:

policy-options {
    policy-statement lb1-fbf-import {
        term inet0-default-direct {
            from {
                instance lb1;
                protocol direct;
                interface xe-1/0/0.0;
            }
            then accept;
        }
        term else-reject {
            then reject;
        }
    }
}
...
routing-instances {
    lb1 {
        instance-type forwarding;
        routing-options {
            static {
                route 0.0.0.0/0 next-hop 1.2.3.4;
            }
            instance-import lb1-fbf-import;
        }
    }
}

Cheers,

Hugo

We have rib-groups configured for our routing-instances to import the direct and local routes, like the below (simplified) config example:

For example, if I have a host hanging off of interface xe-2/0/0 with address 2.2.3.4/24, and I look in the routing-instance's table, I see:

>So a packet with dest IP 2.2.3.4 goes directly to the host instead of going to the LB, which means it has the real host IP and not the VIP's IP as its source, which means no worky worky.

>Alternatively, would it be possible to *not* import any direct routes into the routing-instance (i.e. deleting the rib-groups syntax altogether) and instead add the direct and/or local route manually to the routing instance, so I can ensure that only the direct routes I need to resolve the next hop make it into the routing instance?
