We're trying to do a custom bgp setup for one of our customers but I'm not sure if it's even possible with IOS. Our network has its primary upstream connection in a different city from where this customer will connect. However each city has its own local internet connection as well for backup purposes. The market that this bgp customer is to be turned up on uses the local isp connection as its primary due to capacity issues on the intercity going back to the core city.

This customer's requirements for bandwidth can be met if they use the local connection only but should the connection go down, they would most likely saturate the intercity connection and impact everyone else. What has been proposed is that they will use the local connection to get internet access and should this access go down, they want the bgp session to be dropped or something equivalent that will make sure they don't go over the intercity.

To my knowledge I know of no configuration that can drop a bgp session based on some next hop attribute. Is there some way to control this customer's traffic as stated above? Any examples you guys can offer?

Thanks.

Can you only advertise their prefixes out of the local upstream?
