1. What is the term for routers running BGP?
After a neighbor is configured - BGP sends an open message to try to establish peering with that neighbor. Includes information such as autonomous system number - router ID - and hold time.
BGP speakers
EIGRP uses IP protocol number 88.
The Network LSA (Type 2) lists all attached routers. These LSAs are produced by the DR on every multi-access network. They are flooded within the originating area.
2. Name at least two standard filtering-oriented communities for use in BGP.
The default origin code for BGP routes that you inject using redistribution is unknown.
The BGP standards define several filtering-oriented communities for your use: no-export - Do not advertise routes to real External BGP (EBGP) peers - no-advertise - Do not advertise routes to any peer - local-as - Do not advertise routes to any EBGP
External BGP is a BGP peering relationship between routers in different autonomous systems.
Route tagging with communities is always done with a route map. You can specify any number of communities. Communities specified in the set keyword overwrite existing communities unless you specify the additive option.
3. Over which IP protocol does BGP communicate?
A site that has two connections to the same ISP - either from one router or two routers. One might be primary and the other backup - or the site might load balance over both links. Either static or dynamic routing would work in this case.
BGP communicates over TCP port 179
A list of all configured BGP neighbors. To view it - use the show ip bgp summary command.
Router(config-router)# neighbor ip-address route-reflector-client
4. Another method is commonly used to solve the IBGP full mesh requirement. It involves the configuration of smaller sub-autonomous systems created within a primary autonomous system. What are these called?
To ensure that the router ID can be pinged - be sure to advertise the address using the appropriate network command.
Router(config-router)# neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} prefix-list prefix-listname {in | out}
Confederations are another method of solving the IBGP full mesh requirement. Confederations are smaller sub-autonomous systems created within the primary autonomous system to decrease the number of BGP peer connections.
String matching ranges and wildcards - brackets '[]' can be used for ranges - and the '.' can match any single character.
5. How does EIGRP deal with a router that is slow in responding to reliable packets with acknowledgements?
A site that has two connections to the same ISP - either from one router or two routers. One might be primary and the other backup - or the site might load balance over both links. Either static or dynamic routing would work in this case.
Router(config-router)# neighbor ip-address send-community
To reset the value - use the following command on each router: Router(config-router)# auto-cost reference-bandwidth refbw
Slow neighbors are sent unicast packets in an attempt to resolve issues with slow neighbors.
6. What is the correct syntax to find community attributes in routing updates?
Origin - AS-Path - Next-Hop
Router(config)# ip community-list 1-99 permit|deny value [ value ... ]
Use the neighbor [ip address] next-hop-self command in BGP configuration mode.
Router(config-router)# neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} prefix-list prefix-listname {in | out}
