BgpVplsAdConfig Writable Attributes

Attribute Description
AggregatorAs

AS number to be used for the AGGREGATOR attribute.

Type: string

Default: "" (empty string)

AggregatorIp

IP address to be used for the AGGREGATOR attribute.

Type: ip

Default: null

AsPath

List of AS numbers, in string format, that will be used in the AS_PATH attribute (type code 2) in BGP UPDATE messages. This list identifies the autonomous systems through which the routing information carried in the UPDATE message has passed.

Type: string

Default: 1

AsPathIncrement

Modifies the AS PATH of each route within a route block.

Type: string

Default: 1

AsPathIncrementPerRouter

Increment applied on AS Paths to determine the AS Path value for subsequent routers within router block.

Type: u32

Default: 0

Range: 0 - 4294967295

AsPathPerBlockCount

Number of AS Paths per route block.

Type: u32

Default: 1

AsPathSegmentType

Path segment type for the AS path specified by the asPath attribute.

Type: enum

Default: SEQUENCE

Possible Values:

Value Description
SET

An unordered set of ASs that a route in the UPDATE message has traversed.

SEQUENCE

An ordered set of ASs that a route in the UPDATE message has traversed.

CONFED_SEQ

An ordered set of Member AS Numbers in the local confederation that the UPDATE message has traversed.

CONFED_SET

An unordered set of Member AS Numbers in the local confederation that the UPDATE message has traversed.

AtomicAggregatePresent

Whether to include the ATOMIC_AGGREGATE attribute in BGP UPDATE messages. When this is TRUE, the receiving BGP speaker cannot de-aggregate the prefix into more specific routes.

Type: bool

Default: FALSE

Possible Values:

Value Description
TRUE

Include the ATOMIC_AGGREGATE attribute. The receiving BGP speaker cannot de-aggregate the prefix into more specific routes.

FALSE

Do not include the ATOMIC_AGGREGATE attribute. Specific routes can be de-aggregated .

ClusterIdList

Identifies the route reflectors that a prefix has passed through. This is the optional CLUSTER_LIST path attribute (type code 10), as covered in RFC 2796. This needs a list of cluster IDs (router IDs). Enter up to 250 comma-separated cluster IDs in the form of IPv4 addresses.

Type: ip

Default: 0.0.0.0

Community

List of BGP communities in string format. A community is a group of destinations that share some common property. This is the optional COMMUNITIES community path attribute (type code 8) in UPDATE messages. BGP communities are described in RFC 1997.

Enter up to eight comma-separated pairs. Put a colon between the parts of the pair.

Example: AS:Value,AS:Value.

where each AS and Value is between 0 - 65535, up to 8 pairs. AS numbers cannot be duplicated. Each AS can have only one value.

Type: string

Default: 1:1

ExtendedCommunity

Extended Community

Type: string

Default: "" (empty string)

ExtendedCommunityIncrement

Step value to increment Extended community.

Type: string

Default: "" (empty string)

ExtendedCommunityPerBlockCount

Number of extended community per block.

Type: u32

Default: 1

LocalPreference

LOCAL_PREF path attribute in UPDATE messages. This informs other BGP speakers in the same AS of the local BGP speaker's degree of preference for a route. A higher number means more preference.

Type: u32

Default: 10

Range: 0 - 4294967295

LocalPreferenceIncrement

Modifier to allow a routeblock to vary the Local Preference. The count will be tied to Network Count.

Type: u32

Default: 0

Range: 0 - 4294967295

LocalPreferenceIncrementPerRouter

Increment applied on Local Preference to determine the Local Preference value for subsequent routers within router block.

Type: u32

Default: 0

Range: 0 - 4294967295

Med

Multi-exit discriminator (MED). This is the optional MULTI_EXIT_DISC path attribute (type code 4) in UPDATE messages. This value can be used by a BGP speaker's decision process to discriminate among multiple exit points to a neighboring autonomous system. An exit or entry point with a lower MED should be preferred.

Type: u32

Default: null

Range: 0 - 4294967295

MedIncrement

Modifier to allow a routeblock to vary the MED. The count will be tied to Network Count.

Type: u32

Default: 0

Range: 0 - 4294967295

MedIncrementPerRouter

Increment applied on MED to determine the MED value for subsequent routers within router block.

Type: u32

Default: 0

Range: 0 - 4294967295

NextHop

IP address of the border router that should be used as the next hop to the destinations listed in the UPDATE message. This is the mandatory NEXT_HOP path attribute in UPDATE messages.

Type: ip

Default: null

Origin

Setting of the mandatory ORIGIN path attribute in UPDATE messages. This defines the origin of the path information.

Type: enum

Default: IGP

Possible Values:

Value Description
IGP

IGP (0) - The Network Layer Reachability Information is interior to the originating AS.

EGP

EGP (1) - The Network Layer Reachability Information was learned through EGP.

INCOMPLETE

Incomplete (2) - The Network Layer Reachability Information was learned in some other way.

OriginatorId

Router ID of the originator of the route in the local AS. This is the optional ORIGINATOR_ID path attribute (type code 9).

Type: ip

Default: null

PeAddr

PE IPv4 address.

Type: ip

Default: null

RouteDistinguisher

Route distinguisher in string format. This is a field in the NLRI. An 8-byte value that is concatenated with an IPv4 prefix to create a unique VPN IPv4 prefix.
