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):

Step

Command

Remarks

1. Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2. Enter BGP view or BGP-VPN instance view.

  • Enter BGP view:bgp as-number

  • Enter BGP-VPN instance view:

    1. bgp as-number

    2. ip vpn-instance vpn-instance-name

N/A

3. Enter BGP IPv4 unicast address family view or BGP-VPN IPv4 unicast address family view.

address-family ipv4 [ unicast ]

N/A

4. Inject a local network to the BGP routing table.

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

By default, BGP does not advertise any local network.

To inject a local network (IPv6):

Step

Command

Remarks

1. Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2. Enter BGP view or BGP-VPN instance view.

  • Enter BGP view:bgp as-number

  • Enter BGP-VPN instance view:

    1. bgp as-number

    2. ip vpn-instance vpn-instance-name

N/A

3. Enter BGP IPv6 unicast address family view or BGP-VPN IPv6 unicast address family view.

address-family ipv6 [ unicast ]

N/A

4. Inject a local network to the IPv6 BGP routing table.

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

By default, BGP does not advertise any local network.
