Here my route filter:
/routing filter
add action=accept chain=isp1-out disabled=no invert-match=no prefix=x.x.4.0/24 prefix-length=24 protocol=connect,static,bgp set-bgp-prepend-path=“”
add action=accept chain=isp2-out disabled=no invert-match=no prefix=x.x.4.0/24 prefix-length=24 protocol=connect,static,bgp set-bgp-prepend=5 set-bgp-prepend-path=“”
I want inbound traffic flow from isp1. I already prepend 5x for isp2, but as seen in the picture…the winner is isp2. Why this could be happen ?
What are showing the looking glass of Telia Sonera and Global Crossing from your AS announces
Regards
Thierry
Thanks for your attention.
From Global Crossing, prepend 5x still a winner. Here the result (ASxxx33 is mine):

From Telliasonera seems the best route is correct (came from ASxxx02):

Why from Telia is correct, but from Global Crossing does not ?
How to make all route come from ASxxx02 ?
Telia side is good no prepend
x.x.4.0/24 *[BGP/170] 2d 07:12:08, localpref 200, from 213.248.80.240

GBLX is also good prepend 5

Origin IGP, metric 0, localpref 300, valid, internal, best
so where is the shame ?
What I confused is why prepend 5x still have best path ? Please see my picture in the first post. I want all inbound traffic come from isp1 (ASxxx02). And let isp2 (ASxxx86) as backup only, just in case isp1 down.
you cannot make all trafic come from one ISP with BGP even with PREPEND
i am wondering if you are not speaking allso for outbound trafic because in your picture we can see same metric and local-pref ( 0 and 70 )
so you must also modify local-pref to send traffic through correct ISP ( highest number wins )
“Set BGP Local Pref” only for outbound traffic right ? Actually I don’t care for outgoing traffic, because it is only 10-20% of my bandwidth capacity.
What I concern is for inbound traffic. Capacity for isp1 is 20Mbps and isp2 is 10Mbps. So I need to make some prefix come from isp1. Let’s say like this:
Prefix I have:
X.X.4.0/23
X.X.110.0/23
I need traffic flow like this:
X.X.4.0/24 — inbound from isp1 (isp2 for backup only)
X.X.5.0/24 — inbound from isp2 (isp1 for backup only)
X.X.110.0/24 — inbound from isp1 (isp2 for backup only)
X.X.111.0/24 — inbound from isp1 (isp2 for backup only)
Is there any way to “force” traffic like I need ?
to nsure traffic flowing in only from one ISP you must stop announcing prefix on others ISP but you will lost redundancy
may be what you can do is trying to use communities from Telia and GBLX to make them change their own MED or LOCAL-PREF to your prefix
