Exhibit

Referring to the exhibit, you are receiving the 192.168 0 0/16 route on both R3 and R4 from your EBGP neighbor You must ensure that R1 and R2 receive both BGP routes from the route reflector

In this scenario, which BGP feature should you configure to accomplish this behavior?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

BGP add-path is a feature that allows the advertisement of multiple paths through the same peering session for the same prefix without the new paths implicitly replacing any previous paths. This behavior promotes path diversity and reduces multi-exit discriminator (MED) oscillations. BGP add-path is implemented by adding a path identifier to each path in the NLRI. The path identifier can be considered as something similar to a route distinguisher in VPNs, except that a path ID can apply to any address family.Path IDs are unique to a peering session and are generated for each network3. In this question, we have a route reflector (RR) that receives two routes for the same prefix (192.168.0.0/16) from an EBGP neighbor. By default, the RR will only advertise its best path to its clients (R1 and R2). However, we want R1 and R2 to receive both routes from the RR. To achieve this, we need to configure BGP add-path on the RR and enable it to send multiple paths for the same prefix to its clients.

Route-target seems irrelevant here, right?

You need to configure add-path for that.

I feel like multihop is more about establishing connections rather than handling route distribution, so I’m leaning towards add-path.

Route-target seems like it could be related, but I don't recall it being used for this specific purpose.

I remember practicing a similar question about BGP features, and I think multipath could be relevant here, but it might not be the best fit for this scenario.

I think we might need to use add-path to allow R1 and R2 to receive both routes, but I'm not entirely sure.

Based on the scenario, I believe the add-path feature is the correct solution. This allows the route reflector to advertise multiple paths to the same destination, which would ensure that R1 and R2 receive both routes.

I'm a bit confused on this one. The options include add-path, multihop, multipath, and route-target. I'll need to review the details of each feature to determine the best approach.

Okay, let me see... The question is asking about how to ensure that R1 and R2 receive both BGP routes from the route reflector. I'm thinking the add-path feature might be the way to go here.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky BGP question. I'll need to think carefully about the different BGP features and how they could be used to accomplish the desired behavior.

You know, this question reminds me of that time I accidentally configured a BGP neighbor on the wrong interface and ended up routing all my traffic through the company cafeteria. Ah, good times.

Wait, hold up, I think you're both wrong. It's gotta be B) multihop. You need that to establish EBGP sessions between non-directly connected routers, don't you?
