BGP: Generating
default route:
·
In
BGP, we can generate default route in 2 ways
1. Advertising “network 0.0.0.0
mask 0.0.0.0: command
2. Using “default-information originate”
command or
·
In
the first case, router must have a default-route in its routing table, and then
only it can send it over BGP, but it sends the default-route to all neighbors
·
In
the second case, we can send default route per neighbor. This doesn’t require having
a default route in the routing table.
·
Let
me take a small topology to configure default route in BGP:
·
R1
– AS 100
·
R2
– AS 200
·
R3
– AS 300
·
R4
– AS 400

Observation:
R1
is peering with R2, R3 and R4
R1
has advertised its loopback0 1.1.1.1 into BGP
R2
has advertised its loopback0 2.2.2.2 into BGP
R3
has advertised its loopback0 3.3.3.3 into BGP
·
Now,
I want R3 and R4 to get a default route from R1 through BGP.
·
For
this, first let me create a static route in R1 through R2 and then I will
advertise that into BGP, so that R3 and R4 gets that default route.

Observation:
·
Now,
R3 and R4 got default route from R1 through BGP!
·
But,
R2 also got the same route from R1L
·
So,
general advertisement is not good, solution is to use conditional advertisement
per neighbor

R2(config-router)#
Observation:
·
Now,
only R3 and R4 default route from R1!
·
But,
what if R1 loses its BGP connection to R2????
·
R3
and R4 still gets default route from R1 and we have an issueL
·
Solution
is to advertise this default-route conditionally to R3 and R4, only R1 has its
connection to R2
