I’m wondering what the equivalent is on Microtik is for announce self or announce all in Openbgpd.
I can’t seem to see anything using WinBox for a announce self or announce all in the peer configurations.
An example on our bgpd router would be:
remote-as 11111
neighbour 192.168.0.1
announce self (or all)
Thank you for your help.
Usually I would either:
/routing bgp instance
(so that routes that your BGP-speaking router is connected to are “announced” via BGP)
and/or
2) add a “network” in
/routing bgp network
which you want to announce (“synchronised” if you don’t want the announcement to be made if that isn’t an installed route in your BGP speaker’s routing table)
and/or
3) redistribute static in
/routing bgp instance
— this can be nice if you’ve got a static blackhole route installed for your entire IPv4/IPv6 allocation
Big caveat: it’s wise to put some in- and especially some out-filters on your BGP sessions, as you might want to announce a /24 and not any longer prefixes that are connected or static routes.
