Subject: BGP as-path access-lists
Hello,
I have been recently placed in the awkward position of making some changes
to our BGP configuration. The problem is that I understand how bgp works
for the main part, but I don't have any information on the meaning of the
symbols used in the following as-path access-lists (^, $, _, ., +, (),
*). Could someone tell me what each of them mean? Could
someone also point me to a Cisco page that explains them in detail? I
have been searching and cannot find anything except examples that include
these symbols. Unfortuneately these examples have not helped my
understanding. I have a good idea as to what they probably mean, but I
need to know their exact meaning. It is difficult to manage something
you don't have a clear understanding of!
ip as-path access-list 1 permit ^$
ip as-path access-list
4 permit ^(_6774) +$
ip as-path access-list 10 permit
.*5413$
ip as-path access-list 6 permit ^ (_3414) +
(_2423) +$
HELP!!!
Andre
