Summary
The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) allows setting up an interdomain dynamic routing system that
automatically updates routing tables of devices running BGP in case of network topology changes.
MikroTik RouterOS supports BGP Version 4, as defined in RFC1771.
Starting from version v2.9 MikroTik RouterOS has a brand new BGP implementation, which
provides advanced functionality not available in the previous versions.
Quick Setup Guide
To configure a BGP instance with AS number of 200 and establish a BGP session to the 10.0.11.11
peer from the AS 100, redistributing connected and static routes only, you should do the following:
• Configure default BGP instance:
[admin@rb12] > /routing bgp instance set default as=200 redistribute-static=yes
redistribute-connected=yes [admin@rb12] > /routing bgp instance print Flags: X -
disabled 0 as=200 router-id=0.0.0.0 redistribute-static=yes
redistribute-connected=yes redistribute-rip=no redistribute-ospf=no
redistribute-other-bgp=no name="default" out-filter="" [admin@rb12] >
• Add BGP peer:
[admin@rb12] > /routing bgp peer add remote-address=10.0.11.11 remote-as=100
instance=default [admin@rb12] > /routing bgp peer print Flags: X - disabled 0
