Description
Prioritization in multipath BGP involves selecting and load-sharing traffic across multiple equal-cost BGP paths, including both EBGP and IBGP routes. Prioritization can be used to prioritize critical routes in BGP multipath computations with low-, medium-, and high-priority queues. Doing so reduces multipath-calculation latency for operator-prioritized routes in overall route convergence during high load. You can manage delayed Forwarding Information Base (FIB) convergence that results from frequent routing changes.
Options
high-priority-inline |
Routes that have high priority, either from route prioritization, or overridden using multipath priority policy, will have their equal-cost multipath computed immediately rather than being subject queueing for service. |
policy |
A policy block is used to override the multipath priority queue behavior without affecting the existing route prioritization. If the policy does not have an explicit terminating action, the system defaults to using the medium priority level. |
