   Sample Configuration for BGP with Two Different Service Providers (Multihoming) - Cisco

When you connect your network to two different Internet service providers (ISPs), it is called <i> multihoming </i> . Multihoming provides redundancy and network optimization. It selects the ISP which offers the best path to a resource. When you are running BGP with more than one service provider, you run the risk that your autonomous system (AS) will become a transit AS. This causes Internet traffic to pass through your AS and potentially consume all of the bandwidth and resources on the CPU of your router. This document addresses this issue, with appropriate configuration examples.<h2><a name=prereq> Prerequisites </a></h2><h3><a name=req> Requirements </a></h3><p>Ensure that you have knowledge of these topics before you attempt this configuration:<ul><li><a href=//www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_2/ip/configuration/guide/1cfbgp.html#wp1000879> The Cisco BGP Implementation </a><li><a href=//www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_2/ip/configuration/guide/1cfbgp.html#wp1000934> Basic BGP Configuration Task List </a><li><a href=/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/border-gateway-protocol-bgp/26634-bgp-toc.html> BGP Case Studies </a></ul><h3><a name=hw> Components Used </a></h3><p>The information in this document is based on Cisco 2500 Series Routers that run Cisco IOS <sup> ? </sup> Software Release 12.2(27).<p>The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.<h3><a name=conv> Conventions </a></h3><p>Refer to <a href=/c/en/us/support/docs/dial-access/asynchronous-connections/17016-techtip-conventions.html> Cisco Technical Tips Conventions </a> for more information on document conventions.<h2><a name=extra> Background Information </a></h2><p>If you want to receive the full Internet routing table, use the <a href=/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/border-gateway-protocol-bgp/23675-27.html> Configuration to Receive Full Internet Routing Table </a> on your local router (Router A in the examples in this document).<p>If you want to receive routes that are directly connected to your service providers, but use default routes to the rest of the Internet, try the <a href=/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/border-gateway-protocol-bgp/23675-27.html> Configuration to Receive Directly-Connected Routes </a> .<p>If you want to receive only default routes from the directly connected service providers, use the <a href=/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/border-gateway-protocol-bgp/23675-27.html> Configuration to Receive Default Routes Only </a> .<p>For more information about the regular expressions used in the configurations in this document, refer to <a href=/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/border-gateway-protocol-bgp/13754-26.html> Using Regular Expressions in BGP </a> .<h2><a name=conf> Configure </a></h2><p>In this section, you are presented with the information to configure the features described in this document.<h3><a name=diag> Network Diagram </a></h3><p>This document uses this network setup:<p><img alt=27.gif border=0 src=//www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/support/docs/ip/border-gateway-protocol-bgp/23675-27.gif><p>In that network diagram, 1.0.0.0/8 and 2.0.0.0/8 are advertised by AS 300 to the outside.<h3><a name=routingtable> Configuration to Receive Full Internet Routing Table </a></h3><p>The following configuration allows Router A to peer with BGP speakers in other autonomous systems. The <b> route-map localonly </b> allows only the locally generated routes to be advertised to both of the service providers. In other words, they filter the Internet routes from one service provider that go back to the other service provider. This prevents the risk that your autonomous system will become a transit AS for Internet traffic.<p><b> Note:  </b> Cisco recommends 1 GB of memory for the entire Internet routing table from a single peer.<table bgcolor=#FFFFFF border=1 cellpadding=3 cellspacing=1 width=60%><tbody><tr><th bgcolor=#CCCCFF colspan=1 height rowspan=1 width>Router A<tr><td bgcolor=#FFFFFF colspan=1 rowspan=1><pre>Current configuration:
