Injecting a local network

Perform this task to inject a network in the local routing table to the BGP routing table, so BGP can advertise the network to BGP peers. The ORIGIN attribute of BGP routes advertised in this way is IGP. You can also use a routing policy to control route advertisement.

The specified network must be available and active in the local IP routing table.

To inject a local network (IPv4 unicast/multicast address family):

Step

Command

Remarks

1. Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2. Enter BGP IPv4 unicast address family view, BGP-VPN IPv4 unicast address family view, or BGP IPv4 multicast address family view.

  • Enter BGP IPv4 unicast address family view:

    1. bgp as-number [ instance instance-name ]

    2. address-family ipv4 [ unicast ]

  • Enter BGP-VPN IPv4 unicast address family view:

    1. bgp as-number [ instance instance-name ]

    2. ip vpn-instance vpn-instance-name

    3. address-family ipv4 [ unicast ]

  • Enter BGP IPv4 multicast address family view:

    1. bgp as-number [ instance instance-name ]

    2. address-family ipv4 multicast

N/A

3. Configure BGP to advertise a local network.

network ipv4-address [ mask-length | mask ] [ route-policy route-policy-name ]

By default, BGP does not advertise local networks.

To inject a local network (IPv6 unicast/multicast address family):

Step

Command

Remarks

1. Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2. Enter BGP IPv6 unicast address family view, BGP-VPN IPv6 unicast address family view, or BGP IPv6 multicast address family view.

  • Enter BGP IPv6 unicast address family view:

    1. bgp as-number [ instance instance-name ]

    2. address-family ipv6 [ unicast ]

  • Enter BGP-VPN IPv6 unicast address family view:

    1. bgp as-number [ instance instance-name ]

    2. ip vpn-instance vpn-instance-name

    3. address-family ipv6 [ unicast ]

  • Enter BGP IPv6 multicast address family view:

    1. bgp as-number [ instance instance-name ]

    2. address-family ipv6 multicast

N/A

3. Configure BGP to advertise a local network.

network ipv6-address prefix-length [ route-policy route-policy-name ]

By default, BGP does not advertise local networks.
