How to configure MPLS L3 with BGP AS OVERRIDE?

How to configure MPLS L3 with BGP AS OVERRIDE? BGP has a simple loop prevention mechanism for external BGP. When you see your own Autonomous system number in the AS path, we do not accept the prefix. This mechanism is fine for Internet routing but there are some other scenarios where this might be an issue.

BGP has a simple loop prevention mechanism for external BGP. When you see your own Autonomous system number in the AS path, we do not accept the prefix. This mechanism is fine for Internet routing but there are some other scenarios where this might be an issue. 






In our topology, no routes get installed because the CE routers receive the routes with their own AS coming from other sites. (5500). So as per BGP, it will not install the routes in the BGP table. It's simple if the customer has the same ASN at different sites, the CE routers drop the BGP routes.
The CE routers drop the BGP update as it seems that it's own ASN 5500 is in the update. This behavior is the default behavior of BGP and is a prevention mechanism against loops in BGP


However, we have an easier solution is available and it involves having the PE router replace the customer ASN in the AS path with the ASN of the service provider. The command that you need to configure on the PE router to override the ASN is neighbor-address as-override.  

Let's see the configuration:-

Topology: 



Goal:


  • configure the topology as per the diagram 
  • assign the IP addresses to their interfaces
  • configure IGP (OSPF 1) inside MPLS SP core 
  • configure MPLS LDP on router 1_2_3 
  • configure labels (99-199_200-299_300-399)
  • configure VRF A-1 on router 1 and VRF A-2 on router 3
  • configure RD and RT  value 500:1 on both the sites
  • configure on router 1 assign fastethernet facing CE under VRF A-1
  • configure on router 3 assign fastethernet facing CE under VRF A-2
  • Configure the loopbacks with exact mask to exchange the routes 
  • Configure Routing between PE and CE using EBGP  on the both ends. 
  • Configure  AS- 6123 for SP core , AS 5500 for both the customer sites 
  • ensure that PE routers(R1,and R3) should be able to ping CE routers (R4 and R5) LAN interfaces receptively
  • .configure VPNv4 peering between Router1  and Router 3
  • configure AS-OVERRIDE on Router 1 and Router 3
  • make sure router install the routes in BGP table....
