bgp upload issue

Tue Jun 14, 2011 5:25 pm

Dear,
i've 2 bgp sessions with the same carrier
the 2 internet connections are two 100 Mbps on two different phisical ethernet interface.
in the two peers i've the same configuration (differs only on /30 of remote peer)

the download is perfectly balanced, but the upload goes only on one interface.

routing bgp peers
add address-families=ip comment="" default-originate=never disabled=no hold-time=3m \
in-filter="" instance=default multihop=no name=ITNet nexthop-choice=default out-filter=\
bgp-itnet-out remote-address=151.9.xxx.xxx remote-as=1267 route-reflect=no tcp-md5-key="" \
ttl=default
add address-families=ip comment="" default-originate=never disabled=no hold-time=3m \
in-filter="" instance=default multihop=no name=ITNet2 nexthop-choice=force-self \
out-filter=bgp-itnet2-out remote-address=151.9.xxx.xxx remote-as=1267 route-reflect=no \
tcp-md5-key="" ttl=default

Please Help me..

Are you receiving the same routes from both external peers? Are they sending you a default route, partial table, full table, or full w/ default route?

Also, you may want to read this. http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IP ... .29_routes

Dear,
the external peers ( is the same with 2 link) give me the full routing table.

in the ip route i'have some of:

# DST-ADDRESS PREF-SRC GATEWAY DISTANCE
0 ADb 1.0.4.0/22 151.9.1xx.xxx r... 20
1 Db 1.0.4.0/22 151.9.2xx.xx re... 20
2 ADb 1.1.1.0/30 151.9.1xx.xxx r... 20
3 Db 1.1.1.0/30 151.9.2xx.xx re... 20
4 ADb 1.5.0.0/16 151.9.1xx.xxx r... 20
5 Db 1.5.0.0/16 151.9.2xx.xx re... 20
6 ADb 1.9.0.0/16 151.9.1xx.xxx r... 20
7 Db 1.9.0.0/16 151.9.2xx.xx re... 20
8 ADb 1.11.0.0/21 151.9.1xx.xxx r... 20
9 Db 1.11.0.0/21 151.9.2xx.xx re... 20

....

etc

peer 1 151.9.1xx.xxx upload / download works
peer 2 151.9.2xx.xx download works only

Could you do a 'print detail' on some of those routes so we can see the BGP weight and metrics between the two links? Also please put the output into a [ code ] block. http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=45259

There is no maximum-path option on mikrotik, meaning it is not possible to configure outbound load-balancing on multiple paths with BGP. BGP on RouterOS will only select one path. There is no workaround with BGP as far as I know.

It is possible to configure BGP in RouterOS to use multiple paths. Here you can find examples

Yes, with multihop and some sort of IGP to do the ECMP. That's not the same.

If you would sumarize bandwidth, you can use link-agregation (LACP).

two sessions with same uplink is normaly used for redundancy with 2 routers and bgp-communities for adjust uplink local-preference.

You can select out-bond traffic (with bgp filters and play with preference, med, etc.) but you only try play with up-link communities, by example: one link for your continent or country routers, and other for rest.

Is not good practice but can deaggregate your allocation and public diferent address blocks by bgp sessions.

Is the same problem with 2 uplinks, but the problem is that all routes have same as-path, in bgp only one route is active.
