suggestion for DSCP codepoint for "less than best effort" (scavanger class) traffic

2015-07-02 Thread Mikael Abrahamsson
Hi, in the IETF transport area there are discussions on DSCP interconnection between networks. It's quite common that operators clear (bleach) the DSCP codepoints when receiving packets from other operators, turning everything into BE (best effort) traffic. Historically CS1 has been proposed

Then again, maybe my tinfoil hat is too tight. Recent history would seem to indicate that, if anything, most of us were skimping a bit on tinfoil. That said, the recent cuts in CA have received a lot of attention and passed into the mainstream media; that seems, imho, a bit too public for t

I've referenced article 645 before, but you have to look at anything upstream or downstream of the PDU as well, as the system as a whole needs to be within standards. On Wed, Jul 1, 2015 at 11:42 AM, William Herrin wrote: > Hi Folks, > > Do you know of any regulations, standards or publications

ExaBGP and BIRD clue in the house?

2015-07-02 Thread Randy
Really, it's got to be something dead stupid. Hoping to borrow 5 minutes of someone's time. Replies on or off list are fine. I've reduced it to a simple config: BIRD: protocol bgp { description "ExaBGP-local"; local as 12345; allow local as 1; neighbor 10.0.0.2 as 12345; next hop keep;

FYI, if the static is moved up within the neighbor definition, it works. So this is an Exa related issue/feature and not a problem with BIRD. I'll move the noise to the Exa list if needed. ~Randy On 07/02/2015 9:13 am, Randy wrote: Really, it's got to be something dead stupid. Hoping to b

Exactly… It’s not an issue, it’s expected behavior. If you move the static up within the neighbor definition, it becomes an Anchor Route and Exa knows you want it announced. If you leave it in the static routes section, then you either need a redistribution policy from static to bgp (not recomm

I think you overestimated exabgp's dead simplicity. After some more testing, I found moving the route higher in the config file (before the neighbor definition rather than inside it), it propagates. So order matters more than anything. You have to define routes either BEFORE or WITHIN neig

To demonstrate -- order is everything -- this works: group gixlg { hold-time 180; local-as 12345; router-id 10.0.0.2; family { ipv4 unicast; } static { route 1.2.3.4/32 next-hop 4.3.2.1; } neighbor 10.0.0.1 { router-id 10.0.0.2; local-ad
