Directing RPM Probes to Select BGP Routers

If a Services Router has a large number of BGP neighbors configured, you can direct (filter) the RPM probes to a selected group of BGP neighbors rather than to all the neighbors. To identify the BGP routers to receive RPM probes, you can configure routing instances or a combination of logical routers and routing instances.

The sample RPM configuration in Table 121 sends RPM probes to the BGP neighbors in the following logical routers or logical router-routing instance combinations:

To direct RPM probes to select BGP neighbors:

  1. Navigate to the top of the configuration hierarchy in either the J-Web or CLI configuration editor.
  2. Perform the configuration tasks described in Table 121.
  3. If you are finished configuring the router, commit the configuration.
  4. To verify the configuration, see Verifying an RPM Configuration.

Configure logical router LR1 to send RPM probes to BGP neighbors within the logical router.
  1. Next to Logical router, click Add new entry.
  2. In the Logical router name box, type LR1.
  3. Click OK.

Enter

set logical-router LR1

Configure routing instance RI1 to send RPM probes to BGP neighbors within the routing instance.
  1. Next to Routing instances, click Add new entry.
  2. In the Routing instance name box, type RI1.
  3. Click OK.

Enter

set routing-instances RI1

Configure routing instance RI2 under the logical router LR1 if you want to send RPM probes to the BGP neighbors within the routing instance in the logical router.
  1. In the Logical router name box, click LR1.
  2. Next to Routing instances, click Add new entry.
  3. In the Routing instance name box, type RI2.
