Dont bother importing all the 760k routes learned from your upstream providers into your core. Having that many routes is only going to impact your egress traffic to the Internet, which is probably a drop in the bucket compared to your ingress traffic loads (Netflix, CDNs, etc). Just advertise a default route into the core from both providers and your core can figure out which way to go to get to the Internets.
You could also use BGP community tagged prefixes from your provider to determine which prefixes are directly connected “customers” or “peers”, and advertise only those to your core. That way you’ll have have better outbound path selections for direct peers of your providers, but everybody else it’s a crap shoot. This should cut down on the 760k routes you’ll be receiving on the edge…and not advertising all along the path. > On Sep 24, 2019, at 2:03 PM, Steve Jones <[email protected]> wrote: > > so, say I wanted to bring bgp from geographically separate providers into the > middle of the network and not kill OSPF, use static routes, or have to put in > beefy routers at every hop? > > On Tue, Sep 24, 2019 at 2:24 PM Gino A.
