BGP load balancing configuration example

Network requirements
As shown in
AS 65009. EBGP runs between Switch A and Switch B, and between Switch A and Switch C. IBGP
runs between Switch B and Switch C. Configure two routes on Switch A for load balancing.

Configuration procedure
Configure IP addresses for interfaces. (Details not shown.)
1.
Configure BGP connections:
2.
On Switch A, establish EBGP connections with Switch B and Switch C; configure BGP to
advertise network 8.1.1.0/24 to Switch B and Switch C, so Switch B and Switch C can
access the internal network connected to Switch A.
On Switch B, establish an EBGP connection with Switch A and an IBGP connection with
Switch C; configure BGP to advertise network 9.1.1.0/24 to Switch A, so Switch A can
access the intranet through Switch B; configure a static route to interface loopback 0 on
Switch C (or use a routing protocol like OSPF) to establish the IBGP connection.
On Switch C, establish an EBGP connection with Switch A and an IBGP connection with
Switch B; configure BGP to advertise network 9.1.1.0/24 to Switch A, so Switch A can
access the intranet through Switch C; configure a static route to interface loopback 0 on
Switch B (or use another protocol like OSPF) to establish the IBGP connection.
# Configure Switch A.
