Supp,
thnqx for the reply,
The BGP i have figured out and i have confirmation from my host they
accept customer-set MEDs. Only i couldn't get these working and i found
2 posts on the internet with a different configuration and i don't know
which one is the right one, "med metric 10;" or "default bgp_med 10;"
Am i right that MED is the only option to influence the eBGP and
manipulate the prefered path? ( Values like AS are the same and others
are not accepted)
I attached my eBGP in previous mail.
Regards Thomas

Hello Thomas,
I’m a tiny bit confused by your question, but here is my best attempt
to answer it. In regards to multiple routers say you have .4 and .5
both with a HA address of .1 when using eBGP it will likely be the
“old first” as you say that your host will pass the INBOUND data to.
In regards to the outbound data, your host will accept the data from
either .4 or .5 without issue, in fact it is a common configuration to
have people the oldest BGP session be the inbound and then manipulate
the HA and have .1 be on the newest. That way you have a bit of load
distributed between the inbound and outbound host.
Hope that helps,
Mike

Supp,
I implemented bird in our Private cloud running proxmox to distribute
our public address with eBGP to our serverhost.
Through iBGP and a ucarp interface i have a HA gateway, the problem
is that our host receives the routes but there are multiple entry
points to our subnet ( the proxmox hosts). This makes that a diffrent
in & out route doenst work. through following link:
https://supportforums.cisco.com/document/126691/understanding-bgp-best-path-selection-manipulation
I learned that my hosts selects its route based on age ( the bird
with the first connection is chosen).
Can i send a multi-exit discriminator with my eBGP connection to my
host? I googled but could find 2 answers that did't change anything:
# your default gateway IP below here
protocol bgp eBGP {
import none;
export where proto = "static_packet";
local as 65000;
neighbor 10.80.x.x as 65530;
password "SECRET";
#med metric 10;
#default bgp_med 10;
}
(offcourse i tried both without # and waited till export)
Or is there an other way to make sure that our host routes always to
the first server and so on.
