I would like to be able to specify which BGP routes get exported,
specifically. From what I understand, policies are the way to go about
this.
If someone could take the liberty to explain exactly what the statement
below achieves I would be greatful:
policy-statement "Next_Hop_Self" {
term 1 {
from {
protocol: "bgp"
}
then {
nexthop4: ZZZ.ZZZ.ZZZ.ZZZ
}
}
}
bgp-id: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
local-as: 1234
export: "Next_Hop_Self"
peer "ZZZ.ZZZ.ZZZ.ZZZ" {
local-ip: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
as: 4321
next-hop: ZZZ.ZZZ.ZZZ.ZZZ
}
What exactly is this configuration achieving and how would I throw in
this mix to specify exactly what routes to export to the peer
ZZZ.ZZZ.ZZZ.ZZZ? I wouldn't want to export my default gateway; I could
only imagine what kind of havoc that would create.
I have read the configuration guide on policies, but I am still
confused.
Please help build my confidence in Vyatta routing policies,
