Hi all, I am having a BGP problem, and I am not sure how to solve it. Like Jeff Doyle's book says: BGP is not a difficult problem, the problem is the scenario. This is the scenario that I have:
------------------- | I N T E R N E T | ------------------- |Link A |Link B | | ------- Link E ------- | AS 1 | ------ | AS 3 | -------- -------- |Link C | Link D | | -------------------- | I am here | -------------------- When all links are up everything works fine. The problem is: When Link "B" goes down, there is not any traffic on Link D. In this case Link C gets full and my customer start to call me!. I know it is because there is one more AS hop to reach AS 1, one of the BGP metrics is the amount of AS hops between links. I can manually add one or two prepends for AS 3 and the traffic goes ok, I am taking advantage of Link E My question is: Is there any way that this can be done automaticly?, do I have to use BGP communities? Thanks in advanced, any approach is appreciated.
