Quagga is a routing software package that provides TCP/IP based routing services with routing protocols support such as RIPv1, RIPv2, RIPng, OSPFv2, OSPFv3, BGP-4, and BGP-4+ (see Supported RFCs). Quagga also supports special BGP Route Reflector and Route Server behavior. In addition to traditional IPv4 routing protocols, Quagga also supports IPv6 routing protocols. With SNMP daemon which supports SMUX protocol, Quagga provides routing protocol MIBs (see SNMP Support).
Quagga uses an advanced software architecture to provide you with a high quality, multi server routing engine. Quagga has an interactive user interface for each routing protocol and supports common client commands. Due to this design, you can add new protocol daemons to Quagga easily. You can use Quagga library as your program's client user interface.
Quagga is distributed under the gnu General Public License.
Today, TCP/IP networks are covering all of the world. The Internet has been deployed in many countries, companies, and to the home. When you connect to the Internet your packet will pass many routers which have TCP/IP routing functionality.
A system with Quagga installed acts as a dedicated router. With Quagga, your machine exchanges routing information with other routers using routing protocols. Quagga uses this information to update the kernel routing table so that the right data goes to the right place. You can dynamically change the configuration and you may view routing table information from the Quagga terminal interface.
Adding to routing protocol support, Quagga can setup interface's flags, interface's address, static routes and so on. If you have a small network, or a stub network, or xDSL connection, configuring the Quagga routing software is very easy. The only thing you have to do is to set up the interfaces and put a few commands about static routes and/or default routes. If the network is rather large, or if the network structure changes frequently, you will want to take advantage of Quagga's dynamic routing protocol support for protocols such as RIP, OSPF or BGP.
Traditionally, UNIX based router configuration is done by ifconfig and route commands. Status of routing table is displayed by netstat utility. Almost of these commands work only if the user has root privileges. Quagga has a different system administration method. There are two user modes in Quagga. One is normal mode, the other is enable mode. Normal mode user can only view system status, enable mode user can change system configuration. This UNIX account independent feature will be great help to the router administrator.
Currently, Quagga supports common unicast routing protocols. Multicast routing protocols such as BGMP, PIM-SM, PIM-DM may be supported in Quagga 2.0. MPLS support is going on. In the future, TCP/IP filtering control, QoS control, diffserv configuration will be added to Quagga. Quagga project's final goal is making a productive, quality, free TCP/IP routing software.
Traditional routing software is made as a one process program which provides all of the routing protocol functionalities. Quagga takes a different approach. It is made from a collection of several daemons that work together to build the routing table. There may be several protocol-specific routing daemons and zebra the kernel routing manager.
The ripd daemon handles the RIP protocol, while ospfd is a daemon which supports OSPF version 2. bgpd supports the BGP-4 protocol. For changing the kernel routing table and for redistribution of routes between different routing protocols, there is a kernel routing table manager zebra daemon. It is easy to add a new routing protocol daemons to the entire routing system without affecting any other software. You need to run only the protocol daemon associated with routing protocols in use. Thus, user may run a specific daemon and send routing reports to a central routing console.
There is no need for these daemons to be running on the same machine. You can even run several same protocol daemons on the same machine. This architecture creates new possibilities for the routing system.
+----+ +----+ +-----+ +-----+ |bgpd| |ripd| |ospfd| |zebra| +----+ +----+ +-----+ +-----+ | +---------------------------|--+ | v | | UNIX Kernel routing table | | | +------------------------------+ Quagga System Architecture
Multi-process architecture brings extensibility, modularity and maintainability. At the same time it also brings many configuration files and terminal interfaces. Each daemon has it's own configuration file and terminal interface. When you configure a static route, it must be done in zebra configuration file. When you configure BGP network it must be done in bgpd configuration file. This can be a very annoying thing. To resolve the problem, Quagga provides integrated user interface shell called vtysh. vtysh connects to each daemon with UNIX domain socket and then works as a proxy for user input.
Quagga was planned to use multi-threaded mechanism when it runs with a kernel that supports multi-threads. But at the moment, the thread library which comes with gnu/Linux or FreeBSD has some problems with running reliable services such as routing software, so we don't use threads at all. Instead we use the select(2) system call for multiplexing the events.
Currently Quagga supports gnu/Linux and BSD. Porting Quagga to other platforms is not too difficult as platform dependent code should most be limited to the zebra daemon. Protocol daemons are mostly platform independent. Please let us know when you find out Quagga runs on a platform which is not listed below.
The list of officially supported platforms are listed below. Note that Quagga may run correctly on other platforms, and may run with partial functionality on further platforms.
Below is the list of currently supported RFC's.
When SNMP support is enabled, below RFC is also supported.

There are three steps for installing the software: configuration, compilation, and installation.
The easiest way to get Quagga running is to issue the following commands:
% configure % make % make install
Quagga has an excellent configure script which automatically detects most host configurations. There are several additional configure options you can use to turn off IPv6 support, to disable the compilation of specific daemons, and to enable SNMP support.
You may specify any combination of the above options to the configure script. By default, the executables are placed in /usr/local/sbin and the configuration files in /usr/local/etc. The /usr/local/ installation prefix and other directories may be changed using the following options to the configuration script.
% ./configure --disable-ipv6
This command will configure zebra and the routing daemons.
Additionally, you may configure zebra to drop its elevated privileges shortly after startup and switch to another user. The configure script will automatically try to configure this support. There are three configure options to control the behaviour of Quagga daemons.
The default user and group which will be configured is 'quagga' if no user or group is specified. Note that this user or group requires write access to the local state directory (see –localstatedir) and requires at least read access, and write access if you wish to allow daemons to write out their configuration, to the configuration directory (see –sysconfdir).
On systems which have the 'libcap' capabilities manipulation library (currently only linux), the quagga system will retain only minimal capabilities required, further it will only raise these capabilities for brief periods. On systems without libcap, quagga will run as the user specified and only raise its uid back to uid 0 for brief periods.
There are several options available only to gnu/Linux systems: 1. If you use gnu/Linux, make sure that the current kernel configuration is what you want. Quagga will run with any kernel configuration but some recommendations do exist.
IPv6 support has been added in gnu/Linux kernel version 2.2. If you try to use the Quagga IPv6 feature on a gnu/Linux kernel, please make sure the following libraries have been installed. Please note that these libraries will not be needed when you uses gnu C library 2.1 or upper.
inet6-apps
inet6-apps
package includes basic IPv6 related libraries such
as inet_ntop
and inet_pton
. Some basic IPv6 programs such
as ping, ftp, and inetd are also
included. The inet-apps
can be found at
ftp://ftp.inner.net/pub/ipv6/.
net-tools
net-tools
package provides an IPv6 enabled interface and
routing utility. It contains ifconfig, route,
netstat, and other tools. net-tools
may be found at
http://www.tazenda.demon.co.uk/phil/net-tools/.
After configuring the software, you will need to compile it for your system. Simply issue the command make in the root of the source directory and the software will be compiled. If you have *any* problems at this stage, be certain to send a bug report See Bug Reports.
% ./configure . . . ./configure output . . . % make
Installing the software to your system consists of copying the compiled programs and supporting files to a standard location. After the installation process has completed, these files have been copied from your work directory to /usr/local/bin, and /usr/local/etc.
To install the Quagga suite, issue the following command at your shell prompt: make install.
% % make install %
Quagga daemons have their own terminal interface or VTY. After installation, you have to setup each beast's port number to connect to them. Please add the following entries to /etc/services.
zebrasrv 2600/tcp # zebra service zebra 2601/tcp # zebra vty ripd 2602/tcp # RIPd vty ripngd 2603/tcp # RIPngd vty ospfd 2604/tcp # OSPFd vty bgpd 2605/tcp # BGPd vty ospf6d 2606/tcp # OSPF6d vty ospfapi 2607/tcp # ospfapi isisd 2608/tcp # ISISd vty
If you use a FreeBSD newer than 2.2.8, the above entries are already added to /etc/services so there is no need to add it. If you specify a port number when starting the daemon, these entries may not be needed.
You may need to make changes to the config files in /etc/quagga/*.conf. See Config Commands.
There are five routing daemons in use, and there is one manager daemon. These daemons may be located on separate machines from the manager daemon. Each of these daemons will listen on a particular port for incoming VTY connections. The routing daemons are:
The following sections discuss commands common to all the routing daemons.
In a config file, you can write the debugging options, a vty's password, routing daemon configurations, a log file name, and so forth. This information forms the initial command set for a routing beast as it is starting.
Config files are generally found in:
Each of the daemons has its own config file. For example, zebra's default config file name is:
The daemon name plus .conf is the default config file name. You can specify a config file using the -f or --config-file options when starting the daemon.
Set password for vty interface. If there is no password, a vty won't accept connections.
These commands are deprecated and are present only for historical compatibility. The log trap command sets the current logging level for all enabled logging destinations, and it sets the default for all future logging commands that do not specify a level. The normal default logging level is debugging. The
no
form of the command resets the default level for future logging commands to debugging, but it does not change the logging level of existing logging destinations.
Enable logging output to stdout. If the optional second argument specifying the logging level is not present, the default logging level (typically debugging, but can be changed using the deprecated
log trap
command) will be used. Theno
form of the command disables logging to stdout. Thelevel
argument must have one of these values: emergencies, alerts, critical, errors, warnings, notifications, informational, or debugging. Note that the existing code logs its most important messages with severityerrors
.
If you want to log into a file, please specify
filename
as in this example:log file /var/log/quagga/bgpd.log informationalIf the optional second argument specifying the logging level is not present, the default logging level (typically debugging, but can be changed using the deprecated
log trap
command) will be used. Theno
form of the command disables logging to a file.Note: if you do not configure any file logging, and a daemon crashes due to a signal or an assertion failure, it will attempt to save the crash information in a file named /var/tmp/quagga.<daemon name>.crashlog. For security reasons, this will not happen if the file exists already, so it is important to delete the file after reporting the crash information.
Enable logging output to syslog. If the optional second argument specifying the logging level is not present, the default logging level (typically debugging, but can be changed using the deprecated
log trap
command) will be used. Theno
form of the command disables logging to syslog.
Enable logging output to vty terminals that have enabled logging using the
terminal monitor
command. By default, monitor logging is enabled at the debugging level, but this command (or the deprecatedlog trap
command) can be used to change the monitor logging level. If the optional second argument specifying the logging level is not present, the default logging level (typically debugging, but can be changed using the deprecatedlog trap
command) will be used. Theno
form of the command disables logging to terminal monitors.
This command changes the facility used in syslog messages. The default facility is
daemon
. Theno
form of the command resets the facility to the defaultdaemon
facility.
To include the severity in all messages logged to a file, to stdout, or to a terminal monitor (i.e. anything except syslog), use the
log record-priority
global configuration command. To disable this option, use theno
form of the command. By default, the severity level is not included in logged messages. Note: some versions of syslogd (including Solaris) can be configured to include the facility and level in the messages emitted.
This command sets the precision of log message timestamps to the given number of digits after the decimal point. Currently, the value must be in the range 0 to 6 (i.e. the maximum precision is microseconds). To restore the default behavior (1-second accuracy), use the
no
form of the command, or set the precision explicitly to 0.log timestamp precision 3In this example, the precision is set to provide timestamps with millisecond accuracy.
Set system wide line configuration. This configuration command applies to all VTY interfaces.
Set VTY connection timeout value. When only one argument is specified it is used for timeout value in minutes. Optional second argument is used for timeout value in seconds. Default timeout value is 10 minutes. When timeout value is zero, it means no timeout.
Do not perform timeout at all. This command is as same as exec-timeout 0 0.
Below is a sample configuration file for the zebra daemon.
! ! Zebra configuration file ! hostname Router password zebra enable password zebra ! log stdout ! !
'!' and '#' are comment characters. If the first character of the word is one of the comment characters then from the rest of the line forward will be ignored as a comment.
password zebra!password
If a comment character is not the first character of the word, it's a normal character. So in the above example '!' will not be regarded as a comment and the password is set to 'zebra!password'.
Change to configuration mode. This command is the first step to configuration.
Set terminal display length to <0-512>. If length is 0, no display control is performed.
Shows the current configuration of the logging system. This includes the status of all logging destinations.
Send a message to all logging destinations that are enabled for messages of the given severity.
These options apply to all Quagga daemons.
The file name is an run-time option rather than a configure-time option
so that multiple routing daemons can be run simultaneously. This is
useful when using Quagga to implement a routing looking glass. One
machine can be used to collect differing routing views from differing
points in the network.
VTY – Virtual Terminal [aka TeletYpe] Interface is a command line interface (CLI) for user interaction with the routing daemon.
VTY stands for Virtual TeletYpe interface. It means you can connect to the daemon via the telnet protocol.
To enable a VTY interface, you have to setup a VTY password. If there is no VTY password, one cannot connect to the VTY interface at all.

zebra is an IP routing manager. It provides kernel routing table updates, interface lookups, and redistribution of routes between different routing protocols.
Besides the common invocation options (see Common Invocation Options), the zebra specific invocation options are listed below.
Set the IPv4 or IPv6 address/prefix for the interface.
Set the secondary flag for this address. This causes ospfd to not treat the address as a distinct subnet.
Enable or disables multicast flag for the interface.
Set bandwidth value of the interface in kilobits/sec. This is for calculating OSPF cost. This command does not affect the actual device configuration.
Enable/disable link-detect on platforms which support this. Currently only Linux, and only where network interface drivers support reporting link-state via the IFF_RUNNING flag.
Static routing is a very fundamental feature of routing technology. It defines static prefix and gateway.
network is destination prefix with format of A.B.C.D/M. gateway is gateway for the prefix. When gateway is A.B.C.D format. It is taken as a IPv4 address gateway. Otherwise it is treated as an interface name. If the interface name is null0 then zebra installs a blackhole route.
ip route 10.0.0.0/8 10.0.0.2 ip route 10.0.0.0/8 ppp0 ip route 10.0.0.0/8 null0First example defines 10.0.0.0/8 static route with gateway 10.0.0.2. Second one defines the same prefix but with gateway to interface ppp0. The third install a blackhole route.
This is alternate version of above command. When network is A.B.C.D format, user must define netmask value with A.B.C.D format. gateway is same option as above command
ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 10.0.0.2 ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 ppp0 ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 null0These statements are equivalent to those in the previous example.
Multiple nexthop static route
ip route 10.0.0.1/32 10.0.0.2 ip route 10.0.0.1/32 10.0.0.3 ip route 10.0.0.1/32 eth0
If there is no route to 10.0.0.2 and 10.0.0.3, and interface eth0 is reachable, then the last route is installed into the kernel.
If zebra has been compiled with multipath support, and both 10.0.0.2 and 10.0.0.3 are reachable, zebra will install a multipath route via both nexthops, if the platform supports this.
zebra> show ip route S> 10.0.0.1/32 [1/0] via 10.0.0.2 inactive via 10.0.0.3 inactive * is directly connected, eth0
ip route 10.0.0.0/8 10.0.0.2 ip route 10.0.0.0/8 10.0.0.3 ip route 10.0.0.0/8 null0 255
This will install a multihop route via the specified next-hops if they are reachable, as well as a high-metric blackhole route, which can be useful to prevent traffic destined for a prefix to match less-specific routes (eg default) should the specified gateways not be reachable. Eg:
zebra> show ip route 10.0.0.0/8 Routing entry for 10.0.0.0/8 Known via "static", distance 1, metric 0 10.0.0.2 inactive 10.0.0.3 inactive Routing entry for 10.0.0.0/8 Known via "static", distance 255, metric 0 directly connected, Null0
These behave similarly to their ipv4 counterparts.
Select the primary kernel routing table to be used. This only works for kernels supporting multiple routing tables (like GNU/Linux 2.2.x and later). After setting tableno with this command, static routes defined after this are added to the specified table.
Zebra supports prefix-list and route-map to match routes received from other quagga components. The permit/deny facilities provided by these commands can be used to filter which routes zebra will install in the kernel.
Apply a route-map filter to routes for the specified protocol. protocol can be any or one of system, kernel, connected, static, rip, ripng, ospf, ospf6, isis, bgp, hsls.
Within a route-map, set the preferred source address for matching routes when installing in the kernel.
The following creates a prefix-list that matches all addresses, a route-map
that sets the preferred source address, and applies the route-map to all
rip routes.
ip prefix-list ANY permit 0.0.0.0/0 le 32
route-map RM1 permit 10
match ip address prefix-list ANY
set src 10.0.0.1
ip protocol rip route-map RM1
Display current routes which zebra holds in its database.
Router# show ip route Codes: K - kernel route, C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, B - BGP * - FIB route. K* 0.0.0.0/0 203.181.89.241 S 0.0.0.0/0 203.181.89.1 C* 127.0.0.0/8 lo C* 203.181.89.240/28 eth0
Display whether the host's IP forwarding function is enabled or not. Almost any UNIX kernel can be configured with IP forwarding disabled. If so, the box can't work as a router.
RIP – Routing Information Protocol is widely deployed interior gateway protocol. RIP was developed in the 1970s at Xerox Labs as part of the XNS routing protocol. RIP is a distance-vector protocol and is based on the Bellman-Ford algorithms. As a distance-vector protocol, RIP router send updates to its neighbors periodically, thus allowing the convergence to a known topology. In each update, the distance to any given network will be broadcasted to its neighboring router.
ripd supports RIP version 2 as described in RFC2453 and RIP version 1 as described in RFC1058.
The default configuration file name of ripd's is ripd.conf. When invocation ripd searches directory /etc/quagga. If ripd.conf is not there next search current directory.
RIP uses UDP port 520 to send and receive RIP packets. So the user must have the capability to bind the port, generally this means that the user must have superuser privileges. RIP protocol requires interface information maintained by zebra daemon. So running zebra is mandatory to run ripd. Thus minimum sequence for running RIP is like below:
# zebra -d # ripd -d
Please note that zebra must be invoked before ripd.
To stop ripd. Please use kill `cat /var/run/ripd.pid`. Certain signals have special meaningss to ripd.
ripd invocation options. Common options that can be specified (see Common Invocation Options).
The netmask features of ripd support both version 1 and version 2 of RIP. Version 1 of RIP originally contained no netmask information. In RIP version 1, network classes were originally used to determine the size of the netmask. Class A networks use 8 bits of mask, Class B networks use 16 bits of masks, while Class C networks use 24 bits of mask. Today, the most widely used method of a network mask is assigned to the packet on the basis of the interface that received the packet. Version 2 of RIP supports a variable length subnet mask (VLSM). By extending the subnet mask, the mask can be divided and reused. Each subnet can be used for different purposes such as large to middle size LANs and WAN links. Quagga ripd does not support the non-sequential netmasks that are included in RIP Version 2.
In a case of similar information with the same prefix and metric, the old information will be suppressed. Ripd does not currently support equal cost multipath routing.
The
router rip
command is necessary to enable RIP. To disable RIP, use theno router rip
command. RIP must be enabled before carrying out any of the RIP commands.
Set the RIP enable interface by network. The interfaces which have addresses matching with network are enabled.
This group of commands either enables or disables RIP interfaces between certain numbers of a specified network address. For example, if the network for 10.0.0.0/24 is RIP enabled, this would result in all the addresses from 10.0.0.0 to 10.0.0.255 being enabled for RIP. The
no network
command will disable RIP for the specified network.
Set a RIP enabled interface by ifname. Both the sending and receiving of RIP packets will be enabled on the port specified in the
network ifname
command. Theno network ifname
command will disable RIP on the specified interface.
Specify RIP neighbor. When a neighbor doesn't understand multicast, this command is used to specify neighbors. In some cases, not all routers will be able to understand multicasting, where packets are sent to a network or a group of addresses. In a situation where a neighbor cannot process multicast packets, it is necessary to establish a direct link between routers. The neighbor command allows the network administrator to specify a router as a RIP neighbor. The
no neighbor a.b.c.d
command will disable the RIP neighbor.
Below is very simple RIP configuration. Interface eth0
and
interface which address match to 10.0.0.0/8
are RIP enabled.
! router rip network 10.0.0.0/8 network eth0 !
Passive interface
This command sets the specified interface to passive mode. On passive mode interface, all receiving packets are processed as normal and ripd does not send either multicast or unicast RIP packets except to RIP neighbors specified with
neighbor
command. The interface may be specified as default to make ripd default to passive on all interfaces.The default is to be passive on all interfaces.
RIP split-horizon
Control split-horizon on the interface. Default is
ip split-horizon
. If you don't perform split-horizon on the interface, please specifyno ip split-horizon
.
RIP can be configured to send either Version 1 or Version 2 packets. The default is to send RIPv2 while accepting both RIPv1 and RIPv2 (and replying with packets of the appropriate version for REQUESTS / triggered updates). The version to receive and send can be specified globally, and further overriden on a per-interface basis if needs be for send and receive seperately (see below).
It is important to note that RIPv1 can not be authenticated. Further, if RIPv1 is enabled then RIP will reply to REQUEST packets, sending the state of its RIP routing table to any remote routers that ask on demand. For a more detailed discussion on the security implications of RIPv1 see RIP Authentication.
Set RIP version to accept for reads and send. version can be either `1” or `2”.
Disabling RIPv1 by specifying version 2 is STRONGLY encouraged, See RIP Authentication. This may become the default in a future release.
Default: Send Version 2, and accept either version.
version can be `1', `2' or `1 2'.
This interface command overrides the global rip version setting, and selects which version of RIP to send packets with, for this interface specifically. Choice of RIP Version 1, RIP Version 2, or both versions. In the latter case, where `1 2' is specified, packets will be both broadcast and multicast.
Default: Send packets according to the global version (version 2)
version can be `1', `2' or `1 2'.
This interface command overrides the global rip version setting, and selects which versions of RIP packets will be accepted on this interface. Choice of RIP Version 1, RIP Version 2, or both.
Default: Accept packets according to the global setting (both 1 and 2).
redistribute kernel

Redistribute connected routes into the RIP tables.
no redistribute connected
disables the connected routes in the RIP tables. This command redistribute connected of the interface which RIP disabled. The connected route on RIP enabled interface is announced by default.
redistribute ospf
redistributes routing information from ospf route entries into the RIP tables.no redistribute ospf
disables the routes.
redistribute bgp
redistributes routing information from bgp route entries into the RIP tables.no redistribute bgp
disables the routes.
If you want to specify RIP only static routes:
This command is specific to Quagga. The
route
command makes a static route only inside RIP. This command should be used only by advanced users who are particularly knowledgeable about the RIP protocol. In most cases, we recommend creating a static route in Quagga and redistributing it in RIP usingredistribute static
.
RIP routes can be filtered by a distribute-list.
You can apply access lists to the interface with a
distribute-list
command. access_list is the access list name. direct is ‘in’ or ‘out’. If direct is ‘in’ the access list is applied to input packets.The
distribute-list
command can be used to filter the RIP path.distribute-list
can apply access-lists to a chosen interface. First, one should specify the access-list. Next, the name of the access-list is used in the distribute-list command. For example, in the following configuration ‘eth0’ will permit only the paths that match the route 10.0.0.0/8! router rip distribute-list private in eth0 ! access-list private permit 10 10.0.0.0/8 access-list private deny any !
distribute-list
can be applied to both incoming and outgoing data.
You can apply prefix lists to the interface with a
distribute-list
command. prefix_list is the prefix list name. Next is the direction of ‘in’ or ‘out’. If direct is ‘in’ the access list is applied to input packets.
RIP metric is a value for distance for the network. Usually ripd increment the metric when the network information is received. Redistributed routes' metric is set to 1.
This command modifies the default metric value for redistributed routes. The default value is 1. This command does not affect connected route even if it is redistributed by redistribute connected. To modify connected route's metric value, please use redistribute connected metric or route-map. offset-list also affects connected routes.
Distance value is used in zebra daemon. Default RIP distance is 120.
Set default RIP distance to specified value.
Set default RIP distance to specified value when the route's source IP address matches the specified prefix.
Set default RIP distance to specified value when the route's source IP address matches the specified prefix and the specified access-list.
Usage of ripd's route-map support.
Optional argument route-map MAP_NAME can be added to each redistribute
statement.
redistribute static [route-map MAP_NAME] redistribute connected [route-map MAP_NAME] .....
Cisco applies route-map _before_ routes will exported to rip route table. In current Quagga's test implementation, ripd applies route-map after routes are listed in the route table and before routes will be announced to an interface (something like output filter). I think it is not so clear, but it is draft and it may be changed at future.
Route-map statement (see Route Map) is needed to use route-map functionality.
This command match to incoming interface. Notation of this match is different from Cisco. Cisco uses a list of interfaces - NAME1 NAME2 ... NAMEN. Ripd allows only one name (maybe will change in the future). Next - Cisco means interface which includes next-hop of routes (it is somewhat similar to "ip next-hop" statement). Ripd means interface where this route will be sent. This difference is because "next-hop" of same routes which sends to different interfaces must be different. Maybe it'd be better to made new matches - say "match interface-out NAME" or something like that.
Match if route destination is permitted by access-list.
Match if route next-hop (meaning next-hop listed in the rip route-table as displayed by "show ip rip") is permitted by access-list.
This command match to the metric value of RIP updates. For other protocol compatibility metric range is shown as <0-4294967295>. But for RIP protocol only the value range <0-16> make sense.
This command set next hop value in RIPv2 protocol. This command does not affect RIPv1 because there is no next hop field in the packet.
Set a metric for matched route when sending announcement. The metric value range is very large for compatibility with other protocols. For RIP, valid metric values are from 1 to 16.
RIPv2 allows packets to be authenticated via either an insecure plain
text password, included with the packet, or via a more secure MD5 based
HMAC (keyed-Hashing for Message AuthentiCation),
RIPv1 can not be authenticated at all, thus when authentication is
configured ripd
will discard routing updates received via RIPv1
packets.
However, unless RIPv1 reception is disabled entirely,
See RIP Version Control, RIPv1 REQUEST packets which are received,
which query the router for routing information, will still be honoured
by ripd
, and ripd
WILL reply to such packets. This allows
ripd
to honour such REQUESTs (which sometimes is used by old
equipment and very simple devices to bootstrap their default route),
while still providing security for route updates which are received.
In short: Enabling authentication prevents routes being updated by unauthenticated remote routers, but still can allow routes (I.e. the entire RIP routing table) to be queried remotely, potentially by anyone on the internet, via RIPv1.
To prevent such unauthenticated querying of routes disable RIPv1, See RIP Version Control.
Set the interface with RIPv2 MD5 authentication.
Set the interface with RIPv2 simple password authentication.
RIP version 2 has simple text authentication. This command sets authentication string. The string must be shorter than 16 characters.
Specifiy Keyed MD5 chain.
! key chain test key 1 key-string test ! interface eth1 ip rip authentication mode md5 ip rip authentication key-chain test !
RIP protocol has several timers. User can configure those timers' values by
timers basic
command.The default settings for the timers are as follows:
- The update timer is 30 seconds. Every update timer seconds, the RIP process is awakened to send an unsolicited Response message containing the complete routing table to all neighboring RIP routers.
- The timeout timer is 180 seconds. Upon expiration of the timeout, the route is no longer valid; however, it is retained in the routing table for a short time so that neighbors can be notified that the route has been dropped.
- The garbage collect timer is 120 seconds. Upon expiration of the garbage-collection timer, the route is finally removed from the routing table.
The
timers basic
command allows the the default values of the timers listed above to be changed.
The
no timers basic
command will reset the timers to the default settings listed above.
To display RIP routes.
The command displays all RIP routes. For routes that are received through RIP, this command will display the time the packet was sent and the tag information. This command will also display this information for routes redistributed into RIP.
The command displays current RIP status. It includes RIP timer, filtering, version, RIP enabled interface and RIP peer inforation.

ripngd supports the RIPng protocol as described in RFC2080. It's an IPv6 reincarnation of the RIP protocol.
There are no ripngd
specific invocation options. Common options
can be specified (see Common Invocation Options).
Currently ripngd supports the following commands:
This command is the default and does not appear in the configuration. With this statement, RIPng routes go to the zebra daemon.
You can apply an access-list to the interface using the
distribute-list
command. access_list is an access-list name. direct is ‘in’ or ‘out’. If direct is ‘in’, the access-list is applied only to incoming packets.distribute-list local-only out sit1
OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) version 2 is a routing protocol which is described in RFC2328, OSPF Version 2. OSPF is an IGP (Interior Gateway Protocol). Compared with RIP, OSPF can provide scalable network support and faster convergence times. OSPF is widely used in large networks such as ISP (Internet Service Provider) backbone and enterprise networks.
There are no ospfd specific options. Common options can be specified (see Common Invocation Options) to ospfd. ospfd needs to acquire interface information from zebra in order to function. Therefore zebra must be running before invoking ospfd. Also, if zebra is restarted then ospfd must be too.
Like other daemons, ospfd configuration is done in OSPF specific configuration file ospfd.conf.
To start OSPF process you have to specify the OSPF router. As of this writing, ospfd does not support multiple OSPF processes.
Enable or disable the OSPF process. ospfd does not yet support multiple OSPF processes. So you can not specify an OSPF process number.
This sets the router-ID of the OSPF process. The router-ID may be an IP address of the router, but need not be - it can be any arbitrary 32bit number. However it MUST be unique within the entire OSPF domain to the OSPF speaker - bad things will happen if multiple OSPF speakers are configured with the same router-ID! If one is not specified then ospfd will obtain a router-ID automatically from zebra.
type can be cisco|ibm|shortcut|standard. The "Cisco" and "IBM" types are equivalent.
The OSPF standard for ABR behaviour does not allow an ABR to consider routes through non-backbone areas when its links to the backbone are down, even when there are other ABRs in attached non-backbone areas which still can reach the backbone - this restriction exists primarily to ensure routing-loops are avoided.
With the "Cisco" or "IBM" ABR type, the default in this release of Quagga, this restriction is lifted, allowing an ABR to consider summaries learnt from other ABRs through non-backbone areas, and hence route via non-backbone areas as a last resort when, and only when, backbone links are down.
Note that areas with fully-adjacent virtual-links are considered to be "transit capable" and can always be used to route backbone traffic, and hence are unaffected by this setting (see OSPF virtual-link).
More information regarding the behaviour controlled by this command can be found in RFC 3509, Alternative Implementations of OSPF Area Border Routers, and draft-ietf-ospf-shortcut-abr-02.txt.
Quote: "Though the definition of the ABR (Area Border Router) in the OSPF specification does not require a router with multiple attached areas to have a backbone connection, it is actually necessary to provide successful routing to the inter-area and external destinations. If this requirement is not met, all traffic destined for the areas not connected to such an ABR or out of the OSPF domain, is dropped. This document describes alternative ABR behaviors implemented in Cisco and IBM routers."
RFC2328, the sucessor to RFC1583, suggests according to section G.2 (changes) in section 16.4 a change to the path preference algorithm that prevents possible routing loops that were possible in the old version of OSPFv2. More specifically it demands that inter-area paths and intra-area backbone path are now of equal preference but still both preferred to external paths.
This command should NOT be set normally.
Configures ospfd to log changes in adjacency. With the optional detail argument, all changes in adjacency status are shown. Without detail, only changes to full or regressions are shown.
Do not speak OSPF interface on the given interface, but do advertise the interface as a stub link in the router-LSA (Link State Advertisement) for this router. This allows one to advertise addresses on such connected interfaces without having to originate AS-External/Type-5 LSAs (which have global flooding scope) - as would occur if connected addresses were redistributed into OSPF (see Redistribute routes to OSPF). This is the only way to advertise non-OSPF links into stub areas.
This command sets the initial delay, the initial-holdtime and the maximum-holdtime between when SPF is calculated and the event which triggered the calculation. The times are specified in milliseconds and must be in the range of 0 to 600000 milliseconds.
The delay specifies the minimum amount of time to delay SPF calculation (hence it affects how long SPF calculation is delayed after an event which occurs outside of the holdtime of any previous SPF calculation, and also serves as a minimum holdtime).
Consecutive SPF calculations will always be seperated by at least 'hold-time' milliseconds. The hold-time is adaptive and initially is set to the initial-holdtime configured with the above command. Events which occur within the holdtime of the previous SPF calculation will cause the holdtime to be increased by initial-holdtime, bounded by the maximum-holdtime configured with this command. If the adaptive hold-time elapses without any SPF-triggering event occuring then the current holdtime is reset to the initial-holdtime. The current holdtime can be viewed with show ip ospf, where it is expressed as a multiplier of the initial-holdtime.
router ospf timers throttle spf 200 400 10000In this example, the delay is set to 200ms, the initial holdtime is set to 400ms and the maximum holdtime to 10s. Hence there will always be at least 200ms between an event which requires SPF calculation and the actual SPF calculation. Further consecutive SPF calculations will always be seperated by between 400ms to 10s, the hold-time increasing by 400ms each time an SPF-triggering event occurs within the hold-time of the previous SPF calculation.
This command supercedes the timers spf command in previous Quagga releases.
This enables RFC3137, OSPF Stub Router Advertisement support, where the OSPF process describes its transit links in its router-LSA as having infinite distance so that other routers will avoid calculating transit paths through the router while still being able to reach networks through the router.
This support may be enabled administratively (and indefinitely) or conditionally. Conditional enabling of max-metric router-lsas can be for a period of seconds after startup and/or for a period of seconds prior to shutdown.
Enabling this for a period after startup allows OSPF to converge fully first without affecting any existing routes used by other routers, while still allowing any connected stub links and/or redistributed routes to be reachable. Enabling this for a period of time in advance of shutdown allows the router to gracefully excuse itself from the OSPF domain.
Enabling this feature administratively allows for administrative intervention for whatever reason, for an indefinite period of time. Note that if the configuration is written to file, this administrative form of the stub-router command will also be written to file. If ospfd is restarted later, the command will then take effect until manually deconfigured.
Configured state of this feature as well as current status, such as the number of second remaining till on-startup or on-shutdown ends, can be viewed with the show ip ospf command.
This sets the reference bandwidth for cost calculations, where this bandwidth is considered equivalent to an OSPF cost of 1, specified in Mbits/s. The default is 100Mbit/s (i.e. a link of bandwidth 100Mbit/s or higher will have a cost of 1. Cost of lower bandwidth links will be scaled with reference to this cost).
This configuration setting MUST be consistent across all routers within the OSPF domain.
This command specifies the OSPF enabled interface(s). If the interface has an address from range 192.168.1.0/24 then the command below enables ospf on this interface so router can provide network information to the other ospf routers via this interface.
router ospf network 192.168.1.0/24 area 0.0.0.0Prefix length in interface must be equal or bigger (ie. smaller network) than prefix length in network statement. For example statement above doesn't enable ospf on interface with address 192.168.1.1/23, but it does on interface with address 192.168.1.129/25.
Note that the behavior when there is a peer address defined on an interface changed after release 0.99.7. Currently, if a peer prefix has been configured, then we test whether the prefix in the network command contains the destination prefix. Otherwise, we test whether the network command prefix contains the local address prefix of the interface.
Summarize intra area paths from specified area into one Type-3 summary-LSA announced to other areas. This command can be used only in ABR and ONLY router-LSAs (Type-1) and network-LSAs (Type-2) (ie. LSAs with scope area) can be summarized. Type-5 AS-external-LSAs can't be summarized - their scope is AS. Summarizing Type-7 AS-external-LSAs isn't supported yet by Quagga.
router ospf network 192.168.1.0/24 area 0.0.0.0 network 10.0.0.0/8 area 0.0.0.10 area 0.0.0.10 range 10.0.0.0/8With configuration above one Type-3 Summary-LSA with routing info 10.0.0.0/8 is announced into backbone area if area 0.0.0.10 contains at least one intra-area network (ie. described with router or network LSA) from this range.
Instead of summarizing intra area paths filter them - ie. intra area paths from this range are not advertised into other areas. This command makes sense in ABR only.
Substitute summarized prefix with another prefix.
router ospf network 192.168.1.0/24 area 0.0.0.0 network 10.0.0.0/8 area 0.0.0.10 area 0.0.0.10 range 10.0.0.0/8 substitute 11.0.0.0/8One Type-3 summary-LSA with routing info 11.0.0.0/8 is announced into backbone area if area 0.0.0.10 contains at least one intra-area network (ie. described with router-LSA or network-LSA) from range 10.0.0.0/8. This command makes sense in ABR only.
Configure the area as Shortcut capable. See RFC3509. This requires that the 'abr-type' be set to 'shortcut'.
Configure the area to be a stub area. That is, an area where no router originates routes external to OSPF and hence an area where all external routes are via the ABR(s). Hence, ABRs for such an area do not need to pass AS-External LSAs (type-5s) or ASBR-Summary LSAs (type-4) into the area. They need only pass Network-Summary (type-3) LSAs into such an area, along with a default-route summary.
Prevents an ospfd ABR from injecting inter-area summaries into the specified stub area.
Set the cost of default-summary LSAs announced to stubby areas.
Filter Type-3 summary-LSAs announced to other areas originated from intra- area paths from specified area.
router ospf network 192.168.1.0/24 area 0.0.0.0 network 10.0.0.0/8 area 0.0.0.10 area 0.0.0.10 export-list foo ! access-list foo permit 10.10.0.0/16 access-list foo deny anyWith example above any intra-area paths from area 0.0.0.10 and from range 10.10.0.0/16 (for example 10.10.1.0/24 and 10.10.2.128/30) are announced into other areas as Type-3 summary-LSA's, but any others (for example 10.11.0.0/16 or 10.128.30.16/30) aren't.
This command is only relevant if the router is an ABR for the specified area.
Same as export-list, but it applies to paths announced into specified area as Type-3 summary-LSAs.
Filtering Type-3 summary-LSAs to/from area using prefix lists. This command makes sense in ABR only.
Specify that simple password authentication should be used for the given area.
Specify that OSPF packets must be authenticated with MD5 HMACs within the given area. Keying material must also be configured on a per-interface basis (see ip ospf message-digest-key).
MD5 authentication may also be configured on a per-interface basis (see ip ospf authentication message-digest). Such per-interface settings will override any per-area authentication setting.
Set OSPF authentication key to a simple password. After setting AUTH_KEY, all OSPF packets are authenticated. AUTH_KEY has length up to 8 chars.
Simple text password authentication is insecure and deprecated in favour of MD5 HMAC authentication (see ip ospf authentication message-digest).
Specify that MD5 HMAC authentication must be used on this interface. MD5 keying material must also be configured (see ip ospf message-digest-key). Overrides any authentication enabled on a per-area basis (see area authentication message-digest).
Note that OSPF MD5 authentication requires that time never go backwards (correct time is NOT important, only that it never goes backwards), even across resets, if ospfd is to be able to promptly reestabish adjacencies with its neighbours after restarts/reboots. The host should have system time be set at boot from an external or non-volatile source (eg battery backed clock, NTP, etc.) or else the system clock should be periodically saved to non-volative storage and restored at boot if MD5 authentication is to be expected to work reliably.
Set OSPF authentication key to a cryptographic password. The cryptographic algorithm is MD5.
KEYID identifies secret key used to create the message digest. This ID is part of the protocol and must be consistent across routers on a link.
KEY is the actual message digest key, of up to 16 chars (larger strings will be truncated), and is associated with the given KEYID.
Set link cost for the specified interface. The cost value is set to router-LSA's metric field and used for SPF calculation.
Set number of seconds for RouterDeadInterval timer value used for Wait Timer and Inactivity Timer. This value must be the same for all routers attached to a common network. The default value is 40 seconds.
If 'minimal' is specified instead, then the dead-interval is set to 1 second and one must specify a hello-multiplier. The hello-multiplier specifies how many Hellos to send per second, from 2 (every 500ms) to 20 (every 50ms). Thus one can have 1s convergence time for OSPF. If this form is specified, then the hello-interval advertised in Hello packets is set to 0 and the hello-interval on received Hello packets is not checked, thus the hello-multiplier need NOT be the same across multiple routers on a common link.
Set number of seconds for HelloInterval timer value. Setting this value, Hello packet will be sent every timer value seconds on the specified interface. This value must be the same for all routers attached to a common network. The default value is 10 seconds.
This command has no effect if ip ospf dead-interval minimal is also specified for the interface.
Set explicitly network type for specifed interface.
Set RouterPriority integer value. The router with the highest priority will be more eligible to become Designated Router. Setting the value to 0, makes the router ineligible to become Designated Router. The default value is 1.
Set number of seconds for RxmtInterval timer value. This value is used when retransmitting Database Description and Link State Request packets. The default value is 5 seconds.
Set number of seconds for InfTransDelay value. LSAs' age should be incremented by this value when transmitting. The default value is 1 seconds.
Redistribute routes of the specified protocol or kind into OSPF, with the metric type and metric set if specified, filtering the routes using the given route-map if specified. Redistributed routes may also be filtered with distribute-lists, see ospf distribute-list.
Redistributed routes are distributed as into OSPF as Type-5 External LSAs into links to areas that accept external routes, Type-7 External LSAs for NSSA areas and are not redistributed at all into Stub areas, where external routes are not permitted.
Note that for connected routes, one may instead use passive-interface, see OSPF passive-interface.
Originate an AS-External (type-5) LSA describing a default route into all external-routing capable areas, of the specified metric and metric type. If the 'always' keyword is given then the default is always advertised, even when there is no default present in the routing table.
Apply the access-list filter, NAME, to redistributed routes of the given type before allowing the routes to redistributed into OSPF (see OSPF redistribute).
Configure redistribution limits as requested. Hard limit is a number (1-4294967295) and has no default value (no limit applied). Soft limit is a percentage (1-99) threshold and has a default value of 75. Effective soft limit is taken as SOFTLIMIT percents of the HARDLIMIT value (with appropriate roundoff).
Once the soft limit is reached, a warning message is generated. As soon as the hard limit is reached, another warning message is generated and (unless "warning-only" option is explicitly requested) no further redistribution into OSPF happens. When the number of redistributed routes drops below the hard limit, redistribution begins working again.
This feature applies to Type-5 AS-External self-originated (redistributed) LSAs only. NSSA-translated LSAs are not counted in this process. The "no redistribute maximum-prefix" command may accept multiple arguments, but regardless of their values it always resets the limits to default (disabled).
Show information on a variety of general OSPF and area state and configuration information.
Show state and configuration of OSPF the specified interface, or all interfaces if no interface is given.

ospf6d is a daemon support OSPF version 3 for IPv6 network. OSPF for IPv6 is described in RFC2740.
Bind interface to specified area, and start sending OSPF packets. area can be specified as 0.
Area support for OSPFv3 is not yet implemented.
Sets interface's Hello Interval. Default 40
Sets interface's Router Dead Interval. Default value is 40.
Sets interface's Rxmt Interval. Default value is 5.
Sets interface's Router Priority. Default value is 1.
Sets interface's Inf-Trans-Delay. Default value is 1.
INSTANCE_ID is an optional OSPF instance ID. To see router ID and OSPF instance ID, simply type "show ipv6 ospf6 <cr>".
This command shows LSA database summary. You can specify the type of LSA.

Babel is an interior gateway protocol that is suitable both for wired networks and for wireless mesh networks. Babel has been described as “RIP on speed” — it is based on the same principles as RIP, but includes a number of refinements that make it react much faster to topology changes without ever counting to infinity, and allow it to perform reliable link quality estimation on wireless links. Babel is a double-stack routing protocol, meaning that a single Babel instance is able to perform routing for both IPv4 and IPv6.
Quagga implements Babel as described in RFC6126.
The babeld daemon can be invoked with any of the common options (see Common Invocation Options).
The zebra daemon must be running before babeld is invoked. Also, if zebra is restarted then babeld must be too.
Configuration of babeld is done in its configuration file babeld.conf.
Enable or disable Babel on the given interface.
Specifies whether this interface is wireless, which disables a number of optimisations that are only correct on wired interfaces. Specifying
wireless
(the default) is always correct, but may cause slower convergence and extra routing traffic.
Specifies whether to perform split-horizon on the interface. Specifying
no babel split-horizon
(the default) is always correct, whilebabel split-horizon
is an optimisation that should only be used on symmetric and transitive (wired) networks.
Specifies whether this interface is passive. Note that this is a little weaker than RIP's notion of passive interface, since Babel always sends Hello packets and announces redistributed routes, even on passive interfaces.
Specifies the time in milliseconds between two scheduled hellos. On wired links, Babel notices a link failure within two hello intervals; on wireless links, the link quality value is reestimated at every hello interval. The default is 4000ms.
Specifies the time in milliseconds between two scheduled updates. Since Babel makes extensive use of triggered updates, this can be set to fairly high values on links with little packet loss. The default is 20000ms.
Specifies the time in milliseconds after which an “important” request or update will be resent. The default is 2000ms. You probably don't want to tweak this value.
Specify which kind of routes should be redistributed into Babel.
These commands dump various parts of babeld's internal state. They are mostly useful for troubleshooting.
Enable or disable debugging messages of a given kind. kind can be one of ‘common’, ‘kernel’, ‘filter’, ‘timeout’, ‘interface’, ‘route’ or ‘all’. Note that if you have compiled with the NO_DEBUG flag, then these commands aren't available.
BGP stands for a Border Gateway Protocol. The lastest BGP version is 4. It is referred as BGP-4. BGP-4 is one of the Exterior Gateway Protocols and de-fact standard of Inter Domain routing protocol. BGP-4 is described in RFC1771, A Border Gateway Protocol 4 (BGP-4).
Many extensions have been added to RFC1771. RFC2858, Multiprotocol Extensions for BGP-4 provides multiprotocol support to BGP-4.
Default configuration file of bgpd is bgpd.conf. bgpd searches the current directory first then /etc/quagga/bgpd.conf. All of bgpd's command must be configured in bgpd.conf.
bgpd specific invocation options are described below. Common options may also be specified (see Common Invocation Options).
First of all you must configure BGP router with router bgp command. To configure BGP router, you need AS number. AS number is an identification of autonomous system. BGP protocol uses the AS number for detecting whether the BGP connection is internal one or external one.
Enable a BGP protocol process with the specified asn. After this statement you can input any
BGP Commands
. You can not create different BGP process under different asn without specifyingmultiple-instance
(see Multiple instance).
This command specifies the router-ID. If bgpd connects to zebra it gets interface and address information. In that case default router ID value is selected as the largest IP Address of the interfaces. When
router zebra
is not enabled bgpd can't get interface information sorouter-id
is set to 0.0.0.0. So please set router-id by hand.
This command change distance value of BGP. Each argument is distance value for external routes, internal routes and local routes.
This command set distance value to
This command specifies that the length of confederation path sets and sequences should should be taken into account during the BGP best path decision process.
This command enables BGP route-flap dampening and specifies dampening parameters.
- half-life
- Half-life time for the penalty
- reuse-threshold
- Value to start reusing a route
- suppress-threshold
- Value to start suppressing a route
- max-suppress
- Maximum duration to suppress a stable route
The route-flap damping algorithm is compatible with RFC2439. The use of this command is not recommended nowadays, see RIPE-378.
This command adds the announcement network.
router bgp 1 network 10.0.0.0/8This configuration example says that network 10.0.0.0/8 will be announced to all neighbors. Some vendors' routers don't advertise routes if they aren't present in their IGP routing tables;
bgpd
doesn't care about IGP routes when announcing its routes.
This command specifies an aggregate address. Resulting routes inlucde AS set.
This command specifies an aggregate address. Aggreated routes will not be announce.
Creates a new neighbor whose remote-as is asn. peer can be an IPv4 address or an IPv6 address.
router bgp 1 neighbor 10.0.0.1 remote-as 2In this case my router, in AS-1, is trying to peer with AS-2 at 10.0.0.1.
This command must be the first command used when configuring a neighbor. If the remote-as is not specified, bgpd will complain like this:
can't find neighbor 10.0.0.1
In a router bgp
clause there are neighbor specific configurations
required.
Shutdown the peer. We can delete the neighbor's configuration by

as-number but all configuration of the neighbor will be deleted. When you want to preserve the configuration, but want to drop the BGP peer, use this syntax.
Set description of the peer.
Set up the neighbor's BGP version. version can be 4, 4+ or 4-. BGP version 4 is the default value used for BGP peering. BGP version 4+ means that the neighbor supports Multiprotocol Extensions for BGP-4. BGP version 4- is similar but the neighbor speaks the old Internet-Draft revision 00's Multiprotocol Extensions for BGP-4. Some routing software is still using this version.
When you connect to a BGP peer over an IPv6 link-local address, you have to specify the ifname of the interface used for the connection. To specify IPv4 session addresses, see the
neighbor
peerupdate-source
command below.This command is deprecated and may be removed in a future release. Its use should be avoided.
This command specifies an announced route's nexthop as being equivalent to the address of the bgp router.
Specify the IPv4 source address to use for the BGP session to this neighbour, may be specified as either an IPv4 address directly or as an interface name (in which case the zebra daemon MUST be running in order for bgpd to be able to retrieve interface state).
router bgp 64555 neighbor foo update-source 192.168.0.1 neighbor bar update-source lo0
bgpd's default is to not announce the default route (0.0.0.0/0) even it is in routing table. When you want to announce default routes to the peer, use this command.
This command specifies a default weight value for the neighbor's routes.
This command specifies a distribute-list for the peer. direct is ‘in’ or ‘out’.
Apply a route-map on the neighbor. direct must be
in
orout
.
The AS (Autonomous System) number is one of the essential element of BGP. BGP is a distance vector routing protocol, and the AS-Path framework provides distance vector metric and loop detection to BGP. RFC1930, Guidelines for creation, selection, and registration of an Autonomous System (AS) provides some background on the concepts of an AS.
The AS number is a two octet value, ranging in value from 1 to 65535. The AS numbers 64512 through 65535 are defined as private AS numbers. Private AS numbers must not to be advertised in the global Internet.
AS path regular expression can be used for displaying BGP routes and
AS path access list. AS path regular expression is based on
POSIX 1003.2
regular expressions. Following description is
just a subset of POSIX
regular expression. User can use full
POSIX
regular expression. Adding to that special character '_'
is added for AS path regular expression.
.

_
_
has special meanings in AS path regular expression.
It matches to space and comma , and AS set delimiter { and } and AS
confederation delimiter (
and )
. And it also matches to
the beginning of the line and the end of the line. So _
can be
used for AS value boundaries match. show ip bgp regexp _7675_
matches to all of BGP routes which as AS number include 7675.
To show BGP routes which has specific AS path information show
ip bgp
command can be used.
This commands display BGP routes that matches AS path regular expression line.
AS path access list is user defined AS path.
This command defines a new AS path access list.
BGP communities attribute is widely used for implementing policy routing. Network operators can manipulate BGP communities attribute based on their network policy. BGP communities attribute is defined in RFC1997, BGP Communities Attribute and RFC1998, An Application of the BGP Community Attribute in Multi-home Routing. It is an optional transitive attribute, therefore local policy can travel through different autonomous system.
Communities attribute is a set of communities values. Each communities value is 4 octet long. The following format is used to define communities value.
AS:VAL
AS
is high
order 2 octet in digit format. VAL
is low order 2 octet in
digit format. This format is useful to define AS oriented policy
value. For example, 7675:80
can be used when AS 7675 wants to
pass local policy value 80 to neighboring peer.

(0xFFFFFF03). All routes carry this
value must not be advertised to external BGP peers. Even if the
neighboring router is part of confederation, it is considered as
external BGP peer, so the route will not be announced to the peer.
When BGP communities attribute is received, duplicated communities value in the communities attribute is ignored and each communities values are sorted in numerical order.
BGP community list is a user defined BGP communites attribute list. BGP community list can be used for matching or manipulating BGP communities attribute in updates.
There are two types of community list. One is standard community list and another is expanded community list. Standard community list defines communities attribute. Expanded community list defines communities attribute string with regular expression. Standard community list is compiled into binary format when user define it. Standard community list will be directly compared to BGP communities attribute in BGP updates. Therefore the comparison is faster than expanded community list.
This command defines a new standard community list. community is communities value. The community is compiled into community structure. We can define multiple community list under same name. In that case match will happen user defined order. Once the community list matches to communities attribute in BGP updates it return permit or deny by the community list definition. When there is no matched entry, deny will be returned. When community is empty it matches to any routes.
This command defines a new expanded community list. line is a string expression of communities attribute. line can include regular expression to match communities attribute in BGP updates.
These commands delete community lists specified by name. All of community lists shares a single name space. So community lists can be removed simpley specifying community lists name.
This command display current community list information. When name is specified the specified community list's information is shown.
# show ip community-list Named Community standard list CLIST permit 7675:80 7675:100 no-export deny internet Named Community expanded list EXPAND permit : # show ip community-list CLIST Named Community standard list CLIST permit 7675:80 7675:100 no-export deny internet
When number is used for BGP community list name, the number has special meanings. Community list number in the range from 1 and 99 is standard community list. Community list number in the range from 100 to 199 is expanded community list. These community lists are called as numbered community lists. On the other hand normal community lists is called as named community lists.
This command defines a new community list. <1-99> is standard community list number. Community list name within this range defines standard community list. When community is empty it matches to any routes.
This command defines a new community list. <100-199> is expanded community list number. Community list name within this range defines expanded community list.
When community list type is not specifed, the community list type is automatically detected. If community can be compiled into communities attribute, the community list is defined as a standard community list. Otherwise it is defined as an expanded community list. This feature is left for backward compability. Use of this feature is not recommended.
In Route Map (see Route Map), we can match or set BGP communities attribute. Using this feature network operator can implement their network policy based on BGP communities attribute.
Following commands can be used in Route Map.
This command perform match to BGP updates using community list word. When the one of BGP communities value match to the one of communities value in community list, it is match. When
exact-match
keyword is spcified, match happen only when BGP updates have completely same communities value specified in the community list.
This command manipulate communities value in BGP updates. When
none
is specified as communities value, it removes entire communities attribute from BGP updates. When community is notnone
, specified communities value is set to BGP updates. If BGP updates already has BGP communities value, the existing BGP communities value is replaced with specified community value. Whenadditive
keyword is specified, community is appended to the existing communities value.
This command remove communities value from BGP communities attribute. The word is community list name. When BGP route's communities value matches to the community list word, the communities value is removed. When all of communities value is removed eventually, the BGP update's communities attribute is completely removed.
To show BGP routes which has specific BGP communities attribute,
show ip bgp
command can be used. The community value and
community list can be used for show ip bgp
command.
show ip bgp community
displays BGP routes which has communities attribute. When community is specified, BGP routes that matches community value is displayed. For this command,internet
keyword can't be used for community value. Whenexact-match
is specified, it display only routes that have an exact match.
This commands display BGP routes that matches community list word. When
exact-match
is specified, display only routes that have an exact match.
Following configuration is the most typical usage of BGP communities attribute. AS 7675 provides upstream Internet connection to AS 100. When following configuration exists in AS 7675, AS 100 networks operator can set local preference in AS 7675 network by setting BGP communities attribute to the updates.
router bgp 7675 neighbor 192.168.0.1 remote-as 100 neighbor 192.168.0.1 route-map RMAP in ! ip community-list 70 permit 7675:70 ip community-list 70 deny ip community-list 80 permit 7675:80 ip community-list 80 deny ip community-list 90 permit 7675:90 ip community-list 90 deny ! route-map RMAP permit 10 match community 70 set local-preference 70 ! route-map RMAP permit 20 match community 80 set local-preference 80 ! route-map RMAP permit 30 match community 90 set local-preference 90
Following configuration announce 10.0.0.0/8 from AS 100 to AS 7675. The route has communities value 7675:80 so when above configuration exists in AS 7675, announced route's local preference will be set to value 80.
router bgp 100 network 10.0.0.0/8 neighbor 192.168.0.2 remote-as 7675 neighbor 192.168.0.2 route-map RMAP out ! ip prefix-list PLIST permit 10.0.0.0/8 ! route-map RMAP permit 10 match ip address prefix-list PLIST set community 7675:80
Following configuration is an example of BGP route filtering using communities attribute. This configuration only permit BGP routes which has BGP communities value 0:80 or 0:90. Network operator can put special internal communities value at BGP border router, then limit the BGP routes announcement into the internal network.
router bgp 7675 neighbor 192.168.0.1 remote-as 100 neighbor 192.168.0.1 route-map RMAP in ! ip community-list 1 permit 0:80 0:90 ! route-map RMAP permit in match community 1
Following exmaple filter BGP routes which has communities value 1:1. When there is no match community-list returns deny. To avoid filtering all of routes, we need to define permit any at last.
router bgp 7675 neighbor 192.168.0.1 remote-as 100 neighbor 192.168.0.1 route-map RMAP in ! ip community-list standard FILTER deny 1:1 ip community-list standard FILTER permit ! route-map RMAP permit 10 match community FILTER
Communities value keyword internet
has special meanings in
standard community lists. In below example internet
act as
match any. It matches all of BGP routes even if the route does not
have communities attribute at all. So community list INTERNET
is same as above example's FILTER
.
ip community-list standard INTERNET deny 1:1 ip community-list standard INTERNET permit internet
Following configuration is an example of communities value deletion.
With this configuration communities value 100:1 and 100:2 is removed
from BGP updates. For communities value deletion, only permit
community-list is used. deny
community-list is ignored.
router bgp 7675 neighbor 192.168.0.1 remote-as 100 neighbor 192.168.0.1 route-map RMAP in ! ip community-list standard DEL permit 100:1 100:2 ! route-map RMAP permit 10 set comm-list DEL delete
BGP extended communities attribute is introduced with MPLS VPN/BGP technology. MPLS VPN/BGP expands capability of network infrastructure to provide VPN functionality. At the same time it requires a new framework for policy routing. With BGP Extended Communities Attribute we can use Route Target or Site of Origin for implementing network policy for MPLS VPN/BGP.
BGP Extended Communities Attribute is similar to BGP Communities Attribute. It is an optional transitive attribute. BGP Extended Communities Attribute can carry multiple Extended Community value. Each Extended Community value is eight octet length.
BGP Extended Communities Attribute provides an extended range compared with BGP Communities Attribute. Adding to that there is a type field in each value to provides community space structure.
There are two format to define Extended Community value. One is AS based format the other is IP address based format.
AS:VAL
AS
part is 2 octets Global Administrator subfield in Extended
Community value. VAL

Expanded Community Lists is a user defined BGP Expanded Community Lists.
This command defines a new standard extcommunity-list. extcommunity is extended communities value. The extcommunity is compiled into extended community structure. We can define multiple extcommunity-list under same name. In that case match will happen user defined order. Once the extcommunity-list matches to extended communities attribute in BGP updates it return permit or deny based upon the extcommunity-list definition. When there is no matched entry, deny will be returned. When extcommunity is empty it matches to any routes.
This command defines a new expanded extcommunity-list. line is a string expression of extended communities attribute. line can include regular expression to match extended communities attribute in BGP updates.
These commands delete extended community lists specified by name. All of extended community lists shares a single name space. So extended community lists can be removed simpley specifying the name.
This command display current extcommunity-list information. When name is specified the community list's information is shown.
# show ip extcommunity-list
This command displays BGP routes. When no route is specified it display all of IPv4 BGP routes.

This command display BGP routes using AS path regular expression (see Display BGP Routes by AS Path).
This command display BGP routes using community (see Display BGP Routes by Community).
This command display BGP routes using community list (see Display BGP Routes by Community).
When adding IPv6 routing information exchange feature to BGP. There were some proposals. IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) IDR (Inter Domain Routing) WG (Working group) adopted a proposal called Multiprotocol Extension for BGP. The specification is described in RFC2283. The protocol does not define new protocols. It defines new attributes to existing BGP. When it is used exchanging IPv6 routing information it is called BGP-4+. When it is used for exchanging multicast routing information it is called MBGP.
bgpd supports Multiprotocol Extension for BGP. So if remote peer supports the protocol, bgpd can exchange IPv6 and/or multicast routing information.
Traditional BGP did not have the feature to detect remote peer's capabilities, e.g. whether it can handle prefix types other than IPv4 unicast routes. This was a big problem using Multiprotocol Extension for BGP to operational network. RFC2842, Capabilities Advertisement with BGP-4 adopted a feature called Capability Negotiation. bgpd use this Capability Negotiation to detect the remote peer's capabilities. If the peer is only configured as IPv4 unicast neighbor, bgpd does not send these Capability Negotiation packets (at least not unless other optional BGP features require capability negotation).
By default, Quagga will bring up peering with minimal common capability for the both sides. For example, local router has unicast and multicast capabilitie and remote router has unicast capability. In this case, the local router will establish the connection with unicast only capability. When there are no common capabilities, Quagga sends Unsupported Capability error and then resets the connection.
If you want to completely match capabilities with remote peer. Please use strict-capability-match command.
Strictly compares remote capabilities and local capabilities. If capabilities are different, send Unsupported Capability error then reset connection.
You may want to disable sending Capability Negotiation OPEN message optional parameter to the peer when remote peer does not implement Capability Negotiation. Please use dont-capability-negotiate command to disable the feature.
Suppress sending Capability Negotiation as OPEN message optional parameter to the peer. This command only affects the peer is configured other than IPv4 unicast configuration.
When remote peer does not have capability negotiation feature, remote peer will not send any capabilities at all. In that case, bgp configures the peer with configured capabilities.
You may prefer locally configured capabilities more than the negotiated capabilities even though remote peer sends capabilities. If the peer is configured by override-capability, bgpd ignores received capabilities then override negotiated capabilities with configured values.
Override the result of Capability Negotiation with local configuration. Ignore remote peer's capability value.
At an Internet Exchange point, many ISPs are connected to each other by external BGP peering. Normally these external BGP connection are done by ‘full mesh’ method. As with internal BGP full mesh formation, this method has a scaling problem.
This scaling problem is well known. Route Server is a method to resolve the problem. Each ISP's BGP router only peers to Route Server. Route Server serves as BGP information exchange to other BGP routers. By applying this method, numbers of BGP connections is reduced from O(n*(n-1)/2) to O(n).
Unlike normal BGP router, Route Server must have several routing tables
for managing different routing policies for each BGP speaker. We call the
routing tables as different view
s. bgpd can work as
normal BGP router or Route Server or both at the same time.
To enable multiple view function of bgpd
, you must turn on
multiple instance feature beforehand.
Enable BGP multiple instance feature. After this feature is enabled, you can make multiple BGP instances or multiple BGP views.
Disable BGP multiple instance feature. You can not disable this feature when BGP multiple instances or views exist.
When you want to make configuration more Cisco like one,
When bgp config-type cisco is specified,
“no synchronization” is displayed. “no auto-summary” is displayed.
“network” and “aggregate-address” argument is displayed as “A.B.C.D M.M.M.M”
Quagga: network 10.0.0.0/8 Cisco: network 10.0.0.0
Quagga: aggregate-address 192.168.0.0/24 Cisco: aggregate-address 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0
Community attribute handling is also different. If there is no configuration is specified community attribute and extended community attribute are sent to neighbor. When user manually disable the feature community attribute is not sent to the neighbor. In case of bgp config-type cisco is specified, community attribute is not sent to the neighbor by default. To send community attribute user has to specify neighbor A.B.C.D send-community command.
! router bgp 1 neighbor 10.0.0.1 remote-as 1 no neighbor 10.0.0.1 send-community ! router bgp 1 neighbor 10.0.0.1 remote-as 1 neighbor 10.0.0.1 send-community !
BGP instance is a normal BGP process. The result of route selection goes to the kernel routing table. You can setup different AS at the same time when BGP multiple instance feature is enabled.
bgp multiple-instance ! router bgp 1 neighbor 10.0.0.1 remote-as 2 neighbor 10.0.0.2 remote-as 3 ! router bgp 2 neighbor 10.0.0.3 remote-as 4 neighbor 10.0.0.4 remote-as 5
BGP view is almost same as normal BGP process. The result of route selection does not go to the kernel routing table. BGP view is only for exchanging BGP routing information.
Make a new BGP view. You can use arbitrary word for the name. This view's route selection result does not go to the kernel routing table.
With this command, you can setup Route Server like below.
bgp multiple-instance ! router bgp 1 view 1 neighbor 10.0.0.1 remote-as 2 neighbor 10.0.0.2 remote-as 3 ! router bgp 2 view 2 neighbor 10.0.0.3 remote-as 4 neighbor 10.0.0.4 remote-as 5
You can set different routing policy for a peer. For example, you can set different filter for a peer.
bgp multiple-instance ! router bgp 1 view 1 neighbor 10.0.0.1 remote-as 2 neighbor 10.0.0.1 distribute-list 1 in ! router bgp 1 view 2 neighbor 10.0.0.1 remote-as 2 neighbor 10.0.0.1 distribute-list 2 in
This means BGP update from a peer 10.0.0.1 goes to both BGP view 1 and view 2. When the update is inserted into view 1, distribute-list 1 is applied. On the other hand, when the update is inserted into view 2, distribute-list 2 is applied.
To display routing table of BGP view, you must specify view name.

The purpose of a Route Server is to centralize the peerings between BGP speakers. For example if we have an exchange point scenario with four BGP speakers, each of which maintaining a BGP peering with the other three (see fig:full-mesh), we can convert it into a centralized scenario where each of the four establishes a single BGP peering against the Route Server (see fig:route-server).
We will first describe briefly the Route Server model implemented by Quagga. We will explain the commands that have been added for configuring that model. And finally we will show a full example of Quagga configured as Route Server.
First we are going to describe the normal processing that BGP announcements suffer inside a standard BGP speaker, as shown in fig:normal-processing, it consists of three steps:
Of course we want that the routing tables obtained in each of the routers are the same when using the route server than when not. But as a consequence of having a single BGP peering (against the route server), the BGP speakers can no longer distinguish from/to which peer each announce comes/goes. This means that the routers connected to the route server are not able to apply by themselves the same input/output filters as in the full mesh scenario, so they have to delegate those functions to the route server.
Even more, the “best path” selection must be also performed inside the route server on behalf of its clients. The reason is that if, after applying the filters of the announcer and the (potential) receiver, the route server decides to send to some client two or more different announcements referred to the same destination, the client will only retain the last one, considering it as an implicit withdrawal of the previous announcements for the same destination. This is the expected behavior of a BGP speaker as defined in RFC1771, and even though there are some proposals of mechanisms that permit multiple paths for the same destination to be sent through a single BGP peering, none are currently supported by most existing BGP implementations.
As a consequence a route server must maintain additional information and perform additional tasks for a RS-client that those necessary for common BGP peerings. Essentially a route server must:
When we talk about the “appropriate” filter, both the announcer and the receiver of the route must be taken into account. Suppose that the route server receives an announcement from client A, and the route server is considering it for the Loc-RIB of client B. The filters that should be applied are the same that would be used in the full mesh scenario, i.e., first the `Out' filter of router A for announcements going to router B, and then the `In' filter of router B for announcements coming from router A.
We call “Export Policy” of a RS-client to the set of `Out' filters that the client would use if there was no route server. The same applies for the “Import Policy” of a RS-client and the set of `In' filters of the client if there was no route server.
It is also common to demand from a route server that it does not modify some BGP attributes (next-hop, as-path and MED) that are usually modified by standard BGP speakers before announcing a route.
The announcement processing model implemented by Quagga is shown in fig:rs-processing. The figure shows a mixture of RS-clients (B, C and D) with normal BGP peers (A). There are some details that worth additional comments:
Now we will describe the commands that have been added to quagga in order to support the route server features.
This command configures the peer given by peer, A.B.C.D or X:X::X:X as an RS-client.
Actually this command is not new, it already existed in standard Quagga. It enables the transparent mode for the specified peer. This means that some BGP attributes (as-path, next-hop and MED) of the routes announced to that peer are not modified.
With the route server patch, this command, apart from setting the transparent mode, creates a new Loc-RIB dedicated to the specified peer (those named `Loc-RIB for X' in Figure 11.4.). Starting from that moment, every announcement received by the route server will be also considered for the new Loc-RIB.
This set of commands can be used to specify the route-map that represents the Import or Export policy of a peer which is configured as a RS-client (with the previous command).
This is a new match statement for use in route-maps, enabling them to describe import/export policies. As we said before, an import/export policy represents a set of input/output filters of the RS-client. This statement makes possible that a single route-map represents the full set of filters that a BGP speaker would use for its different peers in a non-RS scenario.
The match peer statement has different semantics whether it is used inside an import or an export route-map. In the first case the statement matches if the address of the peer who sends the announce is the same that the address specified by {A.B.C.D|X:X::X:X}. For export route-maps it matches when {A.B.C.D|X:X::X:X} is the address of the RS-Client into whose Loc-RIB the announce is going to be inserted (how the same export policy is applied before different Loc-RIBs is shown in Figure 11.4.).
This command (also used inside a route-map) jumps into a different route-map, whose name is specified by WORD. When the called route-map finishes, depending on its result the original route-map continues or not. Apart from being useful for making import/export route-maps easier to write, this command can also be used inside any normal (in or out) route-map.
Finally we are going to show how to configure a Quagga daemon to act as a Route Server. For this purpose we are going to present a scenario without route server, and then we will show how to use the configurations of the BGP routers to generate the configuration of the route server.
All the configuration files shown in this section have been taken from scenarios which were tested using the VNUML tool VNUML.
We will suppose that our initial scenario is an exchange point with three BGP capable routers, named RA, RB and RC. Each of the BGP speakers generates some routes (with the network command), and establishes BGP peerings against the other two routers. These peerings have In and Out route-maps configured, named like “PEER-X-IN” or “PEER-X-OUT”. For example the configuration file for router RA could be the following:
#Configuration for router 'RA' ! hostname RA password **** ! router bgp 65001 no bgp default ipv4-unicast neighbor 2001:0DB8::B remote-as 65002 neighbor 2001:0DB8::C remote-as 65003 ! address-family ipv6 network 2001:0DB8:AAAA:1::/64 network 2001:0DB8:AAAA:2::/64 network 2001:0DB8:0000:1::/64 network 2001:0DB8:0000:2::/64 neighbor 2001:0DB8::B activate neighbor 2001:0DB8::B soft-reconfiguration inbound neighbor 2001:0DB8::B route-map PEER-B-IN in neighbor 2001:0DB8::B route-map PEER-B-OUT out neighbor 2001:0DB8::C activate neighbor 2001:0DB8::C soft-reconfiguration inbound neighbor 2001:0DB8::C route-map PEER-C-IN in neighbor 2001:0DB8::C route-map PEER-C-OUT out exit-address-family ! ipv6 prefix-list COMMON-PREFIXES seq 5 permit 2001:0DB8:0000::/48 ge 64 le 64 ipv6 prefix-list COMMON-PREFIXES seq 10 deny any ! ipv6 prefix-list PEER-A-PREFIXES seq 5 permit 2001:0DB8:AAAA::/48 ge 64 le 64 ipv6 prefix-list PEER-A-PREFIXES seq 10 deny any ! ipv6 prefix-list PEER-B-PREFIXES seq 5 permit 2001:0DB8:BBBB::/48 ge 64 le 64 ipv6 prefix-list PEER-B-PREFIXES seq 10 deny any ! ipv6 prefix-list PEER-C-PREFIXES seq 5 permit 2001:0DB8:CCCC::/48 ge 64 le 64 ipv6 prefix-list PEER-C-PREFIXES seq 10 deny any ! route-map PEER-B-IN permit 10 match ipv6 address prefix-list COMMON-PREFIXES set metric 100 route-map PEER-B-IN permit 20 match ipv6 address prefix-list PEER-B-PREFIXES set community 65001:11111 ! route-map PEER-C-IN permit 10 match ipv6 address prefix-list COMMON-PREFIXES set metric 200 route-map PEER-C-IN permit 20 match ipv6 address prefix-list PEER-C-PREFIXES set community 65001:22222 ! route-map PEER-B-OUT permit 10 match ipv6 address prefix-list PEER-A-PREFIXES ! route-map PEER-C-OUT permit 10 match ipv6 address prefix-list PEER-A-PREFIXES ! line vty !
To convert the initial scenario into one with route server, first we must modify the configuration of routers RA, RB and RC. Now they must not peer between them, but only with the route server. For example, RA's configuration would turn into:
# Configuration for router 'RA' ! hostname RA password **** ! router bgp 65001 no bgp default ipv4-unicast neighbor 2001:0DB8::FFFF remote-as 65000 ! address-family ipv6 network 2001:0DB8:AAAA:1::/64 network 2001:0DB8:AAAA:2::/64 network 2001:0DB8:0000:1::/64 network 2001:0DB8:0000:2::/64 neighbor 2001:0DB8::FFFF activate neighbor 2001:0DB8::FFFF soft-reconfiguration inbound exit-address-family ! line vty !
Which is logically much simpler than its initial configuration, as it now maintains only one BGP peering and all the filters (route-maps) have disappeared.
As we said when we described the functions of a route server (see Description of the Route Server model), it is in charge of all the route filtering. To achieve that, the In and Out filters from the RA, RB and RC configurations must be converted into Import and Export policies in the route server.
This is a fragment of the route server configuration (we only show the policies for client RA):
# Configuration for Route Server ('RS') ! hostname RS password ix ! bgp multiple-instance ! router bgp 65000 view RS no bgp default ipv4-unicast neighbor 2001:0DB8::A remote-as 65001 neighbor 2001:0DB8::B remote-as 65002 neighbor 2001:0DB8::C remote-as 65003 ! address-family ipv6 neighbor 2001:0DB8::A activate neighbor 2001:0DB8::A route-server-client neighbor 2001:0DB8::A route-map RSCLIENT-A-IMPORT import neighbor 2001:0DB8::A route-map RSCLIENT-A-EXPORT export neighbor 2001:0DB8::A soft-reconfiguration inbound neighbor 2001:0DB8::B activate neighbor 2001:0DB8::B route-server-client neighbor 2001:0DB8::B route-map RSCLIENT-B-IMPORT import neighbor 2001:0DB8::B route-map RSCLIENT-B-EXPORT export neighbor 2001:0DB8::B soft-reconfiguration inbound neighbor 2001:0DB8::C activate neighbor 2001:0DB8::C route-server-client neighbor 2001:0DB8::C route-map RSCLIENT-C-IMPORT import neighbor 2001:0DB8::C route-map RSCLIENT-C-EXPORT export neighbor 2001:0DB8::C soft-reconfiguration inbound exit-address-family ! ipv6 prefix-list COMMON-PREFIXES seq 5 permit 2001:0DB8:0000::/48 ge 64 le 64 ipv6 prefix-list COMMON-PREFIXES seq 10 deny any ! ipv6 prefix-list PEER-A-PREFIXES seq 5 permit 2001:0DB8:AAAA::/48 ge 64 le 64 ipv6 prefix-list PEER-A-PREFIXES seq 10 deny any ! ipv6 prefix-list PEER-B-PREFIXES seq 5 permit 2001:0DB8:BBBB::/48 ge 64 le 64 ipv6 prefix-list PEER-B-PREFIXES seq 10 deny any ! ipv6 prefix-list PEER-C-PREFIXES seq 5 permit 2001:0DB8:CCCC::/48 ge 64 le 64 ipv6 prefix-list PEER-C-PREFIXES seq 10 deny any ! route-map RSCLIENT-A-IMPORT permit 10 match peer 2001:0DB8::B call A-IMPORT-FROM-B route-map RSCLIENT-A-IMPORT permit 20 match peer 2001:0DB8::C call A-IMPORT-FROM-C ! route-map A-IMPORT-FROM-B permit 10 match ipv6 address prefix-list COMMON-PREFIXES set metric 100 route-map A-IMPORT-FROM-B permit 20 match ipv6 address prefix-list PEER-B-PREFIXES set community 65001:11111 ! route-map A-IMPORT-FROM-C permit 10 match ipv6 address prefix-list COMMON-PREFIXES set metric 200 route-map A-IMPORT-FROM-C permit 20 match ipv6 address prefix-list PEER-C-PREFIXES set community 65001:22222 ! route-map RSCLIENT-A-EXPORT permit 10 match peer 2001:0DB8::B match ipv6 address prefix-list PEER-A-PREFIXES route-map RSCLIENT-A-EXPORT permit 20 match peer 2001:0DB8::C match ipv6 address prefix-list PEER-A-PREFIXES ! ... ... ...
If you compare the initial configuration of RA with the route server configuration above, you can see how easy it is to generate the Import and Export policies for RA from the In and Out route-maps of RA's original configuration.
When there was no route server, RA maintained two peerings, one with RB and another with RC. Each of this peerings had an In route-map configured. To build the Import route-map for client RA in the route server, simply add route-map entries following this scheme:
route-map <NAME> permit 10 match peer <Peer Address> call <In Route-Map for this Peer> route-map <NAME> permit 20 match peer <Another Peer Address> call <In Route-Map for this Peer>
This is exactly the process that has been followed to generate the route-map RSCLIENT-A-IMPORT. The route-maps that are called inside it (A-IMPORT-FROM-B and A-IMPORT-FROM-C) are exactly the same than the In route-maps from the original configuration of RA (PEER-B-IN and PEER-C-IN), only the name is different.
The same could have been done to create the Export policy for RA (route-map RSCLIENT-A-EXPORT), but in this case the original Out route-maps where so simple that we decided not to use the call WORD commands, and we integrated all in a single route-map (RSCLIENT-A-EXPORT).
The Import and Export policies for RB and RC are not shown, but the process would be identical.
The current version of the route server patch only allows to specify a route-map for import and export policies, while in a standard BGP speaker apart from route-maps there are other tools for performing input and output filtering (access-lists, community-lists, ...). But this does not represent any limitation, as all kinds of filters can be included in import/export route-maps. For example suppose that in the non-route-server scenario peer RA had the following filters configured for input from peer B:
neighbor 2001:0DB8::B prefix-list LIST-1 in neighbor 2001:0DB8::B filter-list LIST-2 in neighbor 2001:0DB8::B route-map PEER-B-IN in ... ... route-map PEER-B-IN permit 10 match ipv6 address prefix-list COMMON-PREFIXES set local-preference 100 route-map PEER-B-IN permit 20 match ipv6 address prefix-list PEER-B-PREFIXES set community 65001:11111
It is posible to write a single route-map which is equivalent to the three filters (the community-list, the prefix-list and the route-map). That route-map can then be used inside the Import policy in the route server. Lets see how to do it:
neighbor 2001:0DB8::A route-map RSCLIENT-A-IMPORT import ... ! ... route-map RSCLIENT-A-IMPORT permit 10 match peer 2001:0DB8::B call A-IMPORT-FROM-B ... ... ! route-map A-IMPORT-FROM-B permit 1 match ipv6 address prefix-list LIST-1 match as-path LIST-2 on-match goto 10 route-map A-IMPORT-FROM-B deny 2 route-map A-IMPORT-FROM-B permit 10 match ipv6 address prefix-list COMMON-PREFIXES set local-preference 100 route-map A-IMPORT-FROM-B permit 20 match ipv6 address prefix-list PEER-B-PREFIXES set community 65001:11111 ! ... ...
The route-map A-IMPORT-FROM-B is equivalent to the three filters (LIST-1, LIST-2 and PEER-B-IN). The first entry of route-map A-IMPORT-FROM-B (sequence number 1) matches if and only if both the prefix-list LIST-1 and the filter-list LIST-2 match. If that happens, due to the “on-match goto 10” statement the next route-map entry to be processed will be number 10, and as of that point route-map A-IMPORT-FROM-B is identical to PEER-B-IN. If the first entry does not match, `on-match goto 10” will be ignored and the next processed entry will be number 2, which will deny the route.
Thus, the result is the same that with the three original filters, i.e., if either LIST-1 or LIST-2 rejects the route, it does not reach the route-map PEER-B-IN. In case both LIST-1 and LIST-2 accept the route, it passes to PEER-B-IN, which can reject, accept or modify the route.
vtysh is integrated shell of Quagga software.
To use vtysh please specify —enable-vtysh to configure script. To use PAM for authentication use —with-libpam option to configure script.
vtysh only searches /etc/quagga path for vtysh.conf which is the vtysh configuration file. Vtysh does not search current directory for configuration file because the file includes user authentication settings.
Currently, vtysh.conf has only two commands.
With this set, user foo does not need password authentication for user vtysh. With PAM vtysh uses PAM authentication mechanism.
If vtysh is compiled without PAM authentication, every user can use vtysh without authentication. vtysh requires read/write permission to the various daemons vty sockets, this can be accomplished through use of unix groups and the –enable-vty-group configure option.
Write out integrated Quagga.conf file when 'write file' is issued.
This command controls the behaviour of vtysh when it is told to write out the configuration. Per default, vtysh will instruct each daemon to write out their own config files when write file is issued. However, if service integrated-vtysh-config is set, when write file is issued, vtysh will instruct the daemons will write out a Quagga.conf with all daemons' commands integrated into it.
Vtysh per default behaves as if write-conf daemon is set. Note that both may be set at same time if one wishes to have both Quagga.conf and daemon specific files written out. Further, note that the daemons are hard-coded to first look for the integrated Quagga.conf file before looking for their own file.
We recommend you do not mix the use of the two types of files. Further, it is better not to use the integrated Quagga.conf file, as any syntax error in it can lead to /all/ of your daemons being unable to start up. Per daemon files are more robust as impact of errors in configuration are limited to the daemon in whose file the error is made.
Quagga provides many very flexible filtering features. Filtering is used for both input and output of the routing information. Once filtering is defined, it can be applied in any direction.
Basic filtering is done by access-list
as shown in the
following example.
access-list filter deny 10.0.0.0/9 access-list filter permit 10.0.0.0/8
ip prefix-list provides the most powerful prefix based filtering mechanism. In addition to access-list functionality, ip prefix-list has prefix length range specification and sequential number specification. You can add or delete prefix based filters to arbitrary points of prefix-list using sequential number specification.
If no ip prefix-list is specified, it acts as permit. If ip prefix-list is defined, and no match is found, default deny is applied.
You can create ip prefix-list using above commands.
- seq
- seq number can be set either automatically or manually. In the case that sequential numbers are set manually, the user may pick any number less than 4294967295. In the case that sequential number are set automatically, the sequential number will increase by a unit of five (5) per list. If a list with no specified sequential number is created after a list with a specified sequential number, the list will automatically pick the next multiple of five (5) as the list number. For example, if a list with number 2 already exists and a new list with no specified number is created, the next list will be numbered 5. If lists 2 and 7 already exist and a new list with no specified number is created, the new list will be numbered 10.
- le
- le command specifies prefix length. The prefix list will be applied if the prefix length is less than or equal to the le prefix length.
- ge
- ge command specifies prefix length. The prefix list will be applied if the prefix length is greater than or equal to the ge prefix length.
Less than or equal to prefix numbers and greater than or equal to prefix numbers can be used together. The order of the le and ge commands does not matter.
If a prefix list with a different sequential number but with the exact same rules as a previous list is created, an error will result. However, in the case that the sequential number and the rules are exactly similar, no error will result.
If a list with the same sequential number as a previous list is created, the new list will overwrite the old list.
Matching of IP Prefix is performed from the smaller sequential number to the larger. The matching will stop once any rule has been applied.
In the case of no le or ge command, the prefix length must match exactly the length specified in the prefix list.
Descriptions may be added to prefix lists. This command adds a description to the prefix list.
Deletes the description from a prefix list. It is possible to use the command without the full description.
With this command, the IP prefix list sequential number is displayed. This is the default behavior.
With this command, the IP prefix list sequential number is not displayed.
Show IP prefix list can be used with a prefix list name and sequential number.
If the command longer is used, all prefix lists with prefix lengths equal to or longer than the specified length will be displayed. If the command first match is used, the first prefix length match will be displayed.
Clears the counters of all IP prefix lists. Clear IP Prefix List can be used with a specified name and prefix.
Route maps provide a means to both filter and/or apply actions to route, hence allowing policy to be applied to routes.
Route-maps are an ordered list of route-map entries. Each entry may specify up to four distincts sets of clauses:
The ‘Matching Policy’ is specified as part of the command which
defines the ordered entry in the route-map. See below.
The default action of a route-map, if no entries match, is to deny. I.e. a route-map essentially has as its last entry an empty ‘deny’ entry, which matches all routes. To change this behaviour, one must specify an empty ‘permit’ entry as the last entry in the route-map.
To summarise the above:
Match | No Match
| |
---|---|---|
Permit | action | cont
|
Deny | deny | cont
|
Configure the order'th entry in route-map-name with ‘Match Policy’ of either permit or deny.
Set the BGP-4+ global IPv6 nexthop address.
Set the BGP-4+ link local IPv6 nexthop address.
Call route-map name. If it returns deny, deny the route and finish processing the route-map.
Proceed on to the next entry in the route-map.
Proceed processing the route-map at the first entry whose order is >= N
A simple example of a route-map:
route-map test permit 10 match ip address 10 set local-preference 200
This means that if a route matches ip access-list number 10 it's local-preference value is set to 200.
See BGP Configuration Examples for examples of more sophisticated useage of route-maps, including of the ‘call’ action.
Quagga fully supports IPv6 routing. As described so far, Quagga supports
RIPng, OSPFv3, Babel and BGP-4+. You can give IPv6 addresses to an interface
and configure static IPv6 routing information. Quagga IPv6 also provides
automatic address configuration via a feature called address
auto configuration
. To do it, the router must send router advertisement
messages to the all nodes that exist on the network.
Configuring the IPv6 prefix to include in router advertisements. Several prefix specific optional parameters and flags may follow:
- valid-lifetime - the length of time in seconds during what the prefix is valid for the purpose of on-link determination. Value infinite represents infinity (i.e. a value of all one bits (
0xffffffff
)).Range:
<0-4294967295>
Default:2592000
- preferred-lifetime - the length of time in seconds during what addresses generated from the prefix remain preferred. Value infinite represents infinity.
Range:
<0-4294967295>
Default:604800
- off-link - indicates that advertisement makes no statement about on-link or off-link properties of the prefix.
Default: not set, i.e. this prefix can be used for on-link determination.
- no-autoconfig - indicates to hosts on the local link that the specified prefix cannot be used for IPv6 autoconfiguration.
Default: not set, i.e. prefix can be used for autoconfiguration.
- router-address - indicates to hosts on the local link that the specified prefix contains a complete IP address by setting R flag.
Default: not set, i.e. hosts do not assume a complete IP address is placed.
The maximum time allowed between sending unsolicited multicast router advertisements from the interface, in seconds.
Default:
600
The maximum time allowed between sending unsolicited multicast router advertisements from the interface, in milliseconds.
Default:
600000
The value to be placed in the Router Lifetime field of router advertisements sent from the interface, in seconds. Indicates the usefulness of the router as a default router on this interface. Setting the value to zero indicates that the router should not be considered a default router on this interface. Must be either zero or between value specified with ipv6 nd ra-interval (or default) and 9000 seconds.
Default:
1800
The value to be placed in the Reachable Time field in the Router Advertisement messages sent by the router, in milliseconds. The configured time enables the router to detect unavailable neighbors. The value zero means unspecified (by this router).
Default:
0
Set/unset flag in IPv6 router advertisements which indicates to hosts that they should use managed (stateful) protocol for addresses autoconfiguration in addition to any addresses autoconfigured using stateless address autoconfiguration.
Default: not set
Set/unset flag in IPv6 router advertisements which indicates to hosts that they should use administered (stateful) protocol to obtain autoconfiguration information other than addresses.
Default: not set
Set/unset flag in IPv6 router advertisements which indicates to hosts that the router acts as a Home Agent and includes a Home Agent Option.
Default: not set
The value to be placed in Home Agent Option, when Home Agent config flag is set, which indicates to hosts Home Agent preference. The default value of 0 stands for the lowest preference possible.
Default: 0
+
+ — Interface Command: no ipv6 nd home-agent-lifetime [<0-65520>]
The value to be placed in Home Agent Option, when Home Agent config flag is set, which indicates to hosts Home Agent Lifetime. The default value of 0 means to place the current Router Lifetime value.
Default: 0
Include an Advertisement Interval option which indicates to hosts the maximum time, in milliseconds, between successive unsolicited Router Advertisements.
Default: not set
Set default router preference in IPv6 router advertisements per RFC4191.
Default: medium
Include an MTU (type 5) option in each RA packet to assist the attached hosts in proper interface configuration. The announced value is not verified to be consistent with router interface MTU.
Default: don't advertise any MTU option

For more information see RFC2462 (IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration) , RFC4861 (Neighbor Discovery for IP Version 6 (IPv6)) , RFC6275 (Mobility Support in IPv6) and RFC4191 (Default Router Preferences and More-Specific Routes).
There are several different methods for reading kernel routing table information, updating kernel routing tables, and for looking up interfaces.
netlink
. It makes asynchronous
communication between kernel and Quagga possible, similar to a routing
socket on BSD systems.
Before you use this feature, be sure to select (in kernel configuration) the kernel/netlink support option 'Kernel/User network link driver' and 'Routing messages'.
Today, the /dev/route special device file is obsolete. Netlink communication is done by reading/writing over netlink socket.
After the kernel configuration, please reconfigure and rebuild Quagga. You can use netlink as a dynamic routing update channel between Quagga and the kernel.
SNMP (Simple Network Managing Protocol) is a widely implemented feature for collecting network information from router and/or host. Quagga itself does not support SNMP agent (server daemon) functionality but is able to connect to a SNMP agent using the SMUX protocol (RFC1227) and make the routing protocol MIBs available through it.
There are several SNMP agent which support SMUX. We recommend to use the latest
version of net-snmp
which was formerly known as ucd-snmp
.
It is free and open software and available at http://www.net-snmp.org/
and as binary package for most Linux distributions.
net-snmp
has to be compiled with --with-mib-modules=smux
to
be able to accept connections from Quagga.
To enable SMUX protocol support, Quagga must have been build with the
--enable-snmp
option.
A separate connection has then to be established between between the SNMP agent (snmpd) and each of the Quagga daemons. This connections each use different OID numbers and passwords. Be aware that this OID number is not the one that is used in queries by clients, it is solely used for the intercommunication of the daemons.
In the following example the ospfd daemon will be connected to the snmpd daemon using the password "quagga_ospfd". For testing it is recommending to take exactly the below snmpd.conf as wrong access restrictions can be hard to debug.
/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf: # # example access restrictions setup # com2sec readonly default public group MyROGroup v1 readonly view all included .1 80 access MyROGroup "" any noauth exact all none none # # the following line is relevant for Quagga # smuxpeer .1.3.6.1.4.1.3317.1.2.5 quagga_ospfd /etc/quagga/ospf: ! ... the rest of ospfd.conf has been omitted for clarity ... ! smux peer .1.3.6.1.4.1.3317.1.2.5 quagga_ospfd !
After restarting snmpd and quagga, a successful connection can be verified in the syslog and by querying the SNMP daemon:
snmpd[12300]: [smux_accept] accepted fd 12 from 127.0.0.1:36255 snmpd[12300]: accepted smux peer: \ oid GNOME-PRODUCT-ZEBRA-MIB::ospfd, quagga-0.96.5 # snmpwalk -c public -v1 localhost .1.3.6.1.2.1.14.1.1 OSPF-MIB::ospfRouterId.0 = IpAddress: 192.168.42.109
Be warned that the current version (5.1.1) of the Net-SNMP daemon writes a line
for every SNMP connect to the syslog which can lead to enormous log file sizes.
If that is a problem you should consider to patch snmpd and comment out the
troublesome snmp_log()
line in the function
netsnmp_agent_check_packet()
in agent/snmp_agent.c
.
The following OID numbers are used for the interprocess communication of snmpd and the Quagga daemons. Sadly, SNMP has not been implemented in all daemons yet.

The following syntax is understood by the Quagga daemons for configuring SNMP:
To handle snmp traps make sure your snmp setup of quagga works correctly as described in the quagga documentation in See SNMP Support.
The BGP4 mib will send traps on peer up/down events. These should be visible in your snmp logs with a message similar to:
‘snmpd[13733]: Got trap from peer on fd 14’
To react on these traps they should be handled by a trapsink. Configure your trapsink by adding the following lines to /etc/snmpd/snmpd.conf:
# send traps to the snmptrapd on localhost trapsink localhost
This will send all traps to an snmptrapd running on localhost. You can of course also use a dedicated management station to catch traps. Configure the snmptrapd daemon by adding the following line to /etc/snmpd/snmptrapd.conf:
traphandle .1.3.6.1.4.1.3317.1.2.2 /etc/snmp/snmptrap_handle.sh
This will use the bash script /etc/snmp/snmptrap_handle.sh to handle the BGP4 traps. To add traps for other protocol daemons, lookup their appropriate OID from their mib. (For additional information about which traps are supported by your mib, lookup the mib on http://www.oidview.com/mibs/detail.html).
Make sure snmptrapd is started.
The snmptrap_handle.sh script I personally use for handling BGP4 traps is below. You can of course do all sorts of things when handling traps, like sound a siren, have your display flash, etc., be creative ;).

Zebra Protocol is used by protocol daemons to communicate with the zebra daemon.
Each protocol daemon may request and send information to and from the zebra daemon such as interface states, routing state, nexthop-validation, and so on. Protocol daemons may also install routes with zebra. The zebra daemon manages which route is installed into the forwarding table with the kernel.
Zebra Protocol is a streaming protocol, with a common header. Two versions of the header are in use. Version 0 is implicitely versioned. Version 1 has an explicit version field. Version 0 can be distinguished from all other versions by examining the 3rd byte of the header, which contains a marker value for all versions bar version 0. The marker byte corresponds to the command field in version 0, and the marker value is a reserved command in version 0.
We do not anticipate there will be further versions of the header for the foreseeable future, as the command field in version 1 is wide enough to allow for future extensions to done compatibly through seperate commands.
Version 0 is used by all versions of GNU Zebra as of this writing, and versions of Quagga up to and including Quagga 0.98. Version 1 will be used as of Quagga 1.0.

Quagga can dump routing protocol packet into file with a binary format (see Dump BGP packets and table).
It seems to be better that we share the MRT's header format for backward compatibility with MRT's dump logs. We should also define the binary format excluding the header, because we must support both IP v4 and v6 addresses as socket addresses and / or routing entries.
In the last meeting, we discussed to have a version field in the header. But Masaki told us that we can define new `type' value rather than having a `version' field, and it seems to be better because we don't need to change header format.
Here is the common header format. This is same as that of MRT.
