MBGP Overview
BGP-4 is capable of carrying routing information for IPv4 only. IETF defined multiprotocol BGP extensions to carry routing information for multiple network layer protocols.
For a network, the multicast topology may be different from the unicast topology. To meet the requirement, the multiprotocol BGP extensions enable BGP to carry the unicast Network Layer Reachability Information (NLRI) and multicast NLRI separately, and the multicast NLRI is used to perform reverse path forwarding (RPF) exclusively. In this way, route selection for a destination through the unicast routing table and through the multicast routing table will have different results, ensuring normal unicast and multicast routing.
Multi-protocol BGP is defined in RFC 2858 (Multiprotocol Extensions for BGP-4).
Multi-protocol BGP for IP multicast is referred to as Multicast BGP (MBGP) for short.
l This document covers configuration tasks related to multiprotocol BGP for IP multicast only. For information about BGP, refer to BGP Configuration in the IP Routing Volume.
l For information about RPF, refer to Multicast Routing and Forwarding in the IP Multicast Volume.

Controlling Route Advertisement and Reception
Prerequisites
You need to configure MBGP basic functions before configuring this task.
Configuring MBGP Route Redistribution
MBGP can advertise routing information in the local AS to neighboring ASs. It redistributes such routing information from IGP into its routing table rather than learns the information by itself.
Follow these steps to configure MBGP route redistribution:

Redistribute routes from another routing protocol |
import-route protocol [ process-id [ med med-value | route-policy route-policy-name ] * ] |
At least one of these approaches is required. No route redistribution is configured by default. |
Inject a network into the MBGP routing table |
network ip-address [ mask | mask-length ] [ short-cut | route-policy route-policy-name ] |
l The Origin attribute of routes redistributed into the MBGP routing table with the import-route command is Incomplete.
l The Origin attribute of routes injected into the MBGP routing table with the network command is IGP.
l The networks to be injected must exist in the local IP routing table, and using a route policy makes route control more flexible.
Configure Default Route Redistribution into MBGP
You cannot use the import-route command to configure MBGP to redistribute default routes from other protocols. Instead, use the following commands:

default-route imported |
Required Not enabled by default |
Configuring MBGP Route Summarization
To reduce the routing table size on medium and large MBGP networks, you need to configure route summarization on peers. MBGP supports two summarization modes: automatic and manual.
l Automatic summarization: Summarizes subnets redistributed from IGP. With the feature configured, MBGP advertises only summary natural networks rather than subnets. The default routes and routes injected with the network command are not summarized.
l Manual summarization: Summarizes MBGP local routes. A manual summary route has a higher priority than an automatic one.

Required Not advertised by default |
With the peer default-route-advertise command executed, the router sends a default route with the next hop being itself to the specified MBGP peer or peer group, regardless of whether the default route is available in the routing table.
Configuring Outbound MBGP Route Filtering
If several filtering policies are configured, they are applied in the following sequence:
l filter-policy export
l peer filter-policy export
l peer as-path-acl export

Optional Not enabled by default |
Configuring the Next Hop Attribute
You can use the peer next-hop-local command to specify the local router as the next hop of routes sent to a MBGP iBGP peer/peer group. If load balancing is configured, the router specifies itself as the next hop of route advertisements to the multicast iBGP peer/peer group regardless of whether the peer next-hop-local command is configured.
In a “third party next hop" network, that is, the local router has two multicast eBGP peers in a broadcast network, the router does not specify itself as the next hop of routing information sent to the eBGP peers unless the peer next-hop-local command is configured.
Follow these steps to specify the router as the next hop of routes sent to a peer/peer group:

Optional By default, BGP updates carry private AS numbers. |
Tuning and Optimizing MBGP Networks
This task involves resetting MBGP connections and configuring load balancing.
Prerequisites
You need to configure BGP basic functions before configuring this task.
Configuring MBGP Soft Reset
After modifying a route selection policy, you have to reset MBGP connections to make it take effect, causing short time disconnections.
After the route-refresh capability is enabled on all MBGP routers in a network, when a route selection policy is modified on a router, the local router can perform dynamic route updates without tearing down MBGP connections.
If the peer does not support route-refresh, you can save all route updates from the peer. When the route selection policy changes, you can refresh the MBGP routing table and apply the new policy without tearing down MBGP connections.
Soft reset through route-refresh
If the peer is enabled with route-refresh, when the MBGP route selection policy is modified on a router, the router advertises a route-refresh message to its MBGP peers, which resend their routing information to the router after receiving the message. Therefore, the local router can perform dynamic route update and apply the new policy without tearing down MBGP connections.
Follow these steps to configure MBGP soft reset through route-refresh:
To do… |
Use the command… |

Required Not configured by default. |
l When configuring MBGP community, you need to reference a route policy to define the specific community attributes, and apply the route policy for route advertisement.
l For route policy configuration, refer to Route Policy Configuration in the IP Routing Volume.
Configuring an MBGP Route Reflector
To guarantee the connectivity between multicast iBGP peers in an AS, you need to make them fully meshed. But this becomes unpractical when there are large numbers of multicast iBGP peers. Configuring route reflectors can solve this problem.

Required Not configured by default. |
Enable route reflection between clients |
reflect between-clients |
Optional Enabled by default. |
Configure the cluster ID of the route reflector |
reflector cluster-id cluster-id |
Optional By default, a route reflector uses its router ID as the cluster ID. |
l In general, it is not required that clients of a route reflector be fully meshed. The route reflector forwards routing information between clients. If clients are fully meshed, you can disable route reflection between clients to reduce routing costs.
l In general, a cluster has only one route reflector, and the router ID of the route reflector is used to identify the cluster. You can configure multiple route reflectors to improve network stability. In this case, you need to specify the same cluster ID for these route reflectors to avoid routing loops.

MBGP Configuration Example
Network requirements
As shown in the following figure:
l PIM-SM 1 is in AS 100 and PIM-SM 2 is in AS 200. OSPF is the IGP in the two ASs, and MBGP runs between the two ASs to exchange multicast route information.
l The multicast source belongs to PIM-SM 1, and the receiver belongs to PIM-SM 2.
l It is required that the respective Loopback 0 of Switch A and Switch B be configured as the C-BSR and C-RP of the respective PIM-SM domains.
l Router A and Router B establishes an MSDP peer relationship through MBGP.

Configuration procedure
1) Configure IP addresses for interfaces as shown in the above figure (omitted).
2) Configure OSPF (omitted).
3) Enable IP multicast routing, PIM-SM and IGMP, and configure a PIM-SM domain border.
# Enable IP multicast routing on Switch A, and enable PIM-SM on each interface.
<SwitchA> system-view
[SwitchA] multicast routing-enable
[SwitchA] interface vlan-interface 100
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface100] pim sm
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface100] quit
[SwitchA] interface vlan-interface 101
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface101] pim sm
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface101] quit
The configuration on Switch B and Switch D is similar to the configuration on Switch A.
# Enable IP multicast routing on Switch C, enable PIM-SM on each interface, and enable IGMP on the host-side interface VLAN-interface 200.
<SwitchC> system-view
[SwitchC] multicast routing-enable
[SwitchC] interface vlan-interface 102
[SwitchC-Vlan-interface102] pim sm
[SwitchC-Vlan-interface102] quit
[SwitchC] interface vlan-interface 104
[SwitchC-Vlan-interface104] pim sm
[SwitchC-Vlan-interface104] quit
[SwitchC] interface vlan-interface 200
[SwitchC-Vlan-interface200] pim sm
[SwitchC-Vlan-interface200] igmp enable
[SwitchC-Vlan-interface200] quit
# Configure a PIM domain border on Switch A.
[SwitchA] interface vlan-interface 101
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface101] pim bsr-boundary
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface101] quit
# Configure a PIM domain border on Switch B.
[SwitchB] interface vlan-interface 101
[SwitchB-Vlan-interface101] pim bsr-boundary
[SwitchB-Vlan-interface101] quit
4) Configure Loopback 0 and the position of C-BSR, and C-RP.
# Configure Loopback 0 and configure it as the C-BSR and C-RP on Switch A.
[SwitchA] interface loopback 0
[SwitchA-LoopBack0] ip address 1.1.1.1 32
[SwitchA-LoopBack0] pim sm
[SwitchA-LoopBack0] quit
[SwitchA] pim
[SwitchA-pim] c-bsr loopback 0
[SwitchA-pim] c-rp loopback 0
[SwitchA-pim] quit
# Configure Loopback 0 and configure it as the C-BSR and C-RP on Switch B.
[SwitchB] interface loopback 0
[SwitchB-LoopBack0] ip address 2.2.2.2 32
[SwitchB-LoopBack0] pim sm
[SwitchB-LoopBack0] quit
[SwitchB] pim
[SwitchB-pim] c-bsr loopback 0
[SwitchB-pim] c-rp loopback 0
[SwitchB-pim] quit
5) Configure BGP, specify the MBGP peer and enable direct route redistribution.
# On Switch A, configure the MBGP peer and enable direct route redistribution.
[SwitchA] bgp 100
[SwitchA-bgp] router-id 1.1.1.1
[SwitchA-bgp] peer 192.168.1.2 as-number 200
[SwitchA-bgp] import-route direct
[SwitchA-bgp] ipv4-family multicast
[SwitchA-bgp-af-mul] peer 192.168.1.2 enable
[SwitchA-bgp-af-mul] import-route direct
[SwitchA-bgp-af-mul] quit
[SwitchA-bgp] quit
# On Switch B, configure the MBGP peer and enable route redistribution from OSPF.
[SwitchB] bgp 200
[SwitchB-bgp] router-id 2.2.2.2
[SwitchB-bgp] peer 192.168.1.1 as-number 100
[SwitchB-bgp] import-route ospf 1
[SwitchB-bgp] ipv4-family multicast
[SwitchB-bgp-af-mul] peer 192.168.1.1 enable
[SwitchB-bgp-af-mul] import-route ospf 1
[SwitchB-bgp-af-mul] quit
[SwitchB-bgp] quit
6) Configure MSDP peer
# Specify the MSDP peer on Switch A.
[SwitchA] msdp
[SwitchA-msdp] peer 192.168.1.2 connect-interface vlan-interface 101
[SwitchA-msdp] quit
# Specify the MSDP peer on Switch B.
[SwitchB] msdp
[SwitchB-msdp] peer 192.168.1.1 connect-interface vlan-interface 101
[SwitchB-msdp] quit
7) Verify the configuration
You can use the display bgp multicast peer command to display MBGP peers on a switch. For example, display MBGP peers on Switch B.
[SwitchB] display bgp multicast peer
BGP local router ID : 2.2.2.2
Local AS number : 200
Total number of peers : 3 Peers in established state : 3
Peer V AS MsgRcvd MsgSent OutQ PrefRcv Up/Down State
192.168.1.1 4 100 56 56 0 0 00:40:54 Established
You can use the display msdp brief command to display MSDP peers on a switch. For example, display brief information about MSDP peers on Switch B.
[SwitchB] display msdp brief
