RT-1.5: BGP Prefix Limit

Summary

BGP Prefix Limit

Procedure

  • Configure eBGP session between ATE port-1 and DUT port-1,with an Accept-route all import-policy/export-policy under the neighbor AFI/SAFI.
  • With maximum prefix limits of unlimited, and N.
    • Advertise prefixes of limit - 1, limit, limit + 1. Validate session state meets expected value at ATE.
    • Ensure that DUT marks session as prefix-limit exceeded for limit+1 prefixes.
  • Advertise prefixes to exceed configured limit, and to limit - 1 following session teardown, ensure session is re-established per the restart timer (with ATE session marked as passive).
  • With maximum-prefix warning-only configured, ensure that the routes that were sent prior to the max-prefix being exceeded are retained in the routing table by forwarding traffic to prefix{0..n-1} and prefix{n} where n is the maximum prefix limit configured.
