GNS3 Lab & Exercise: Configuring IBGP and EBGP Sessions, Local Preference and MED

Written by LBSources from http://www.gns3-labs.com on May 27th, 2010 | 4 Comments

Keeping it going with BGP here! This is basically lab 3 from the lab portfolio. This one adds some EIGRP into the mix to help demonstrate how to get IGP routes into the routing tables and how that affects the overall routing including BGP.

This lab includes working with IBGP EBGP, the local preference and the Multi-Exit Discriminator

This is a lab from the Cisco Networking Academy Lab Portforlio.

CCNP Building Scalable Internetworks (BSCI 642-901) Lab Portfolio (Cisco Networking Academy)

Routers Used:3640

IOS:c3640-ik9o3s-mz.124-17a

Feature of Topology: IBGP, EBGP , Local Preference, MED & EIGRP

Image:

Lab Objectives: In this lab, you will configure both IBGP and EBGP. For IBGP peers in this lab to correctly exchange routing information, the next-hop-self command must be used along with the Local-Preference and MED attributes. This is to insure that
the flat-rate, unlimited-use T1 link is used for sending and receiving data to and from the AS 200 on ISP. The metered T1 should only be used in the event that the primary T1 link has failed. Traffic sent across the metered T1 link offers the same bandwidth of the primary link but at a huge expense. Ensure that this link is not used unnecessarily.
