Juniper Routers Sample BGP Configurations : Quick and Easy

As in my earlier post i wrote about the basic configurations on Cisco Router where i define configurations on Route Reflector, Confederation, Route-Maps, Prefix Lists, Local Preference, AS-Path, MED, Communities and Peer groups.

In this article I am just going to put Juniper router basics BGP configurations. In the later articles I will cover all the configurations like Route Reflector, Confederation, Route-Maps, Prefix Lists, Local Preference, AS-Path, MED, Communities and Peer groups on juniper and Huawei routers.

Below is the basic network topology with configuration as below

Fig 1.1- Juniper Router BGP Topology
Here in the above shown topology, we have Router A, Router B, Router C, Router D and Router E. Router A, B and C are in the AS 22 while Router D is in AS 79 and Router E is in AS 17

Configure the interfaces to Peers A, B, C, and D
Router_NB# set ge-1/2/0 unit 0 description to-A

Data center startup offers compute colo at cell towers

Vapor IO, an Austin-based data center technology startup, is launching a rather interesting collocation business by offering leased data center capacity at cellular network towers. The company’s argument is that it should offer compute and network capabilities together for maximum edge computing.The service, called Project Volutus, includes everything from site selection to rack space, power, connectivity, infrastructure management software, and remote hands. The company believes that the need for edge computing capacity will increase as things like IoT, connected and autonomous cars, augmented and virtual reality, and 5G wireless come to market and start scaling.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

Viewing Linux output in columns

The Linux column command makes it easy to display data in a columnar format -- often making it easier to view, digest, or incorporate into a report. While column is a command that's simple to use, it has some very useful options that are worth considering. In the examples in this post, you will get a feel for how the command works and how you can get it to format data in the most useful ways.By default, the column command will ignore blanks lines in the input data. When displaying data in multiple columns, it will organize the content by filling the left column first and then moving to the right. For example, a file containing numbers 1 to 12 might be displayed in this order:To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

IDG Contributor Network: The fight to defend the Internet of Things

The Internet has entered a new chapter called the Internet of Things (IoT). It follows the fixed-Internet era characterized by connected PCs and laptops through the 1990s, and builds on the mobile-Internet era spearheaded by the proliferation of smartphones during the first two decades of this century. This new chapter has a new set of challenges and opportunities because it involves a broader diversity of devices — ranging from connected light bulbs, smart gas meters and smart speakers, to IP monitoring cameras, smart watches, drones, and robots. And while the connectivity and compute requirements of these IoT devices vary widely, they all have a common need: strong security.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

The Biggest Shift in Supercomputing Since GPU Acceleration

For years, the pace of change in large-scale supercomputing neatly tracked with the curve of Moore’s Law. As that swell flattens, and as the competitive pressure ticks up to build productive exascale supercomputers in the next few years, HPC has been scrambling to find the silver bullet architecture to reach sustained exascale performance. And as it turns out, there isn’t one.

But there is something else—something few saw coming three years ago, has less to do with hardware than it does a shift in how we approach massive-scale simulations, and is happening so fast that too-far-ahead-of-time procurements are …

Security Here I Come!

The announcement has been made!  It is completely official!  I can finally share the awesome great news I am so excited about.  Security will be my absolute #1 focus now. 

Security has always fascinated me.  My entire career.  ….. It’s just that the fundamentals of routing and design intrigued me even more.  🙂

But now?  Yeah baby!  Now I get to flip a switch… dive into and completely surround myself with all things Security.  And I just could not be any more tickled pink and excited.  I feel like all my years of networking have been a build up towards this.

Am I leaving my CPOC lab and job I adore so much?  Nah… I’d go through withdrawal.  LOL.  Nah… wouldn’t be pretty.  It is just my role that will be changing.

Woot woot!  Security here I come!  ROCK!

IDG Contributor Network: The future is not the cloud or the fog: it is actually the SEA!

A casual reflection on the last few years in the evolution of the wireless network provides us all the insights necessary to reason that there is at least one final frontier coming down the road. Who can deny that the last few years have been owned by the cloud, virtualization and softwarization (if that is even a word!). Edge Computing too, which is really nothing more than the pushing of all of these concepts deep into places in the network where they have never been before. Fog computing is another term (created by Cisco) for something similar but driven in its genesis more bottom up from the many Internet of Things use cases. The bigger trend is obvious; network intelligence is distributing but where will it, can it go, beyond this?To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

Sample Network Automation Ansible Playbooks

I developed over a dozen different Ansible-based network automation solutions in the last two years for my network automation workshops and online course, and always published them on GitHub… but never built an index, or explained what they do, and why I decided to do things that way.

With the new my.ipSpace.net functionality I added for online courses I got the hooks I needed to make the first part happen:

Cisco Routers Sample BGP Configurations : Quick and Easy

Today I am going to talk about the configurations of BGP on Cisco Routers. I will explain some of the terms which we are going to use in the configurations. Please let me know if you guys required any specific configuration in BGP or you can share the design with us so that we can create the configurations accordingly.

Sometimes if it difficult to set up a BGP configurations in the lab or in the live environment, so here in this article i am just posting the sample configurations which will help you guys to configure BGP in you labs or in the live environment. There is no relevance of this configuration with any of the live networks. All IPs taken in the configuration is just a sample IP addresses taken.

BGP is a wide routing protocol which is used on to connect the WAN links between two different AS. AS stands for autonomous systems. Below is a sample BGP topology and is not relevant what sample configurations shared with you in the below article.

Fig 1.1- Sample BGP Topology


We have two kinds of BGP sessions; one is iBGP which is internal BGP and other is eBGP which Continue reading

Lenovo’s new workstation is indeed ‘Tiny’ but packs a punch

Windows users who work in tight spaces and looking for a small form factor workstation with multiple display ports and solid processing power have a new contender to check out: the new ThinkStation P320 Tiny.The workstation lives up to its name: At 1.4 x 7.1 by 7.2 inches, it's the smallest workstation on the market that is ISV (independent software vendor) certified, according to Rob Herman, the general manager of Lenovo's workstation business unit.The ISV certification is important. "We don't consider a machine to be a workstation unless it has ISV certification," according to Lloyd Cohen, an analyst with IDC.The U.S. government uses the same definition for workstations and for non-government users, software certifications mean that you can run CAD and CAM programs, for example, without worrying about crashing, Cohen noted. That's important if you're working on a complex design.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

IoT devices or humans?

A Swedish rail line can now collect fares by scanning its customers for embedded biometric chips. The primary benefit is the elimination of a physical ticket -- plus it’s harder to lose. It sounds futuristic, but my dogs have been sporting embedded chips for over a decade.If you think about it, physical tickets are kind of a silly. They are a surrogate for the person. The practice of scanning a ticket, instead of a person, was likely established when there just weren’t many viable alternatives. Technology now offers a more direct approach.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
