This document describes the Bgp Peer Flap Damping feature which allows session damping for peers with bfd enabled.

This document describes the route Flap Damping feature in multi-agent BGP.

BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP) allows a monitoring station to connect to a router and collect all of the BGP announcements received from the router’s BGP peers. The announcements are sent to the station in the form of BMP Route Monitoring messages generated from path information in the router’s BGP Adj-Rib-In tables.

EOS supports configuring and associating communities on static routes. These are carried into BGP on redistribution. 

EOS 4.23.1F introduces the ability to configure the color extended community in route map set clauses and in an

In EOS-4.31.2F ipv6 link-local next-hops can now be configured in BGP through RCF (Routing Control Functions). On the advertising BGP agent an ipv6 link-local next-hop is configured on the outbound policy function. The receiving BGP agent reads this link-local next-hop and automatically assigns the interface from which the BGP path was sent.

This feature extends link bandwidth extended community deletion mechanism, which previously always required

This feature introduces a new CLI command (agent Bgp snapshot mrt received routes [ VRF ] FILE) which generates an MRT file containing the peers, prefixes and path attributes received by a switch running multi-agent routing m

BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP) allows a monitoring station to connect to a router and collect all of the BGP announcements received from the router’s BGP peers. The announcements are sent to the station in the form of BMP Route Monitoring messages generated from path information in the router’s BGP internal tables. A BMP speaker may choose to send either Adj-Rib-In routes, or Loc-Rib routes (as defined by RFC9069), or both.

The route map feature in BGP allows filtering and manipulating BGP path information. It combines set statements with

Unequal cost multi path (UCMP) for BGP is a mechanism for forwarding ECMP route traffic using weights, with which the

This feature allows customers to configure BFD intervals on a per BGP neighbor basis. We also have existing support for the configuration of BFD intervals on a per interface basis and the configuration of BFD intervals globally on the entire device.

In the ribd routing protocol model, the “maximum paths … ecmp …” command allows restricting the number of BGP

BGP routing information often contains more than one path to the same destination network. The BGP best-path selection algorithm determines which of these paths should be considered as the best path to that network.

Configuring the IGP cost for tunnels is a feature that allows influencing the BGP best path selection for routes

Unequal Cost Multi Path (UCMP) is a mechanism for forwarding traffic for an ECMP route by using a ratio of weights

Default routing protocols model will be set to multi-agent in 4.30.1. Note that the default value is only used if a value is not specified in startup-config.

The feature will provide the ability to error disable local interfaces in a BGP VPWS pseudowire when the remote interface is shutdown or whenever we do not receive a response from BGP.

VRF redirection often requires matching packets’ source addresses against one or more sets of IP prefixes.  This can become difficult to manage when the prefix sets need to be consistently maintained on several devices and either change too frequently or are very large.  When the prefixes for the prefix sets are learned by BGP, this feature provides an alternative to maintaining unwieldy sets of statically configured IP prefixes.
