Protocol-Independent Routing Properties Overview
Protocol-independent
routing properties affect system-wide routing operations. For the
most part, these properties are independent of any routing protocols.
The protocol-independent routing properties allow you to do the following:
- Add routing table entries, including static routes, aggregated
(coalesced) routes, generated routes (routes of last resort), and
martian routes (routes to ignore).
- Create additional routing tables and routing table groups.
- Set the autonomous system (AS) number of the router for
use by the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).
- Set the router ID, which is used by BGP and Open Shortest
Path First (OSPF) to identify the router from which a packet originated.
- Define BGP confederation members for use by BGP.
- Configure multicast administrative scoping.
- Configure how much system logging information to log for
the routing protocol process.
- Configure system-wide tracing (debugging) to track standard
and unusual routing operations and record this information in a log
file.
This chapter discusses the following topics
related to understanding and configuring
protocol-independent routing properties:
