Afternoon sessions

BGP Multihoming Techniques

Presentation [pdf]

Level: Introductory to intermediate
Time: 90 minutes

This tutorial introduces service providers to some of the features available in BGP to aid multihoming to the Internet. After an explanation of multihoming and the principles being followed in this tutorial, several examples involving different scenarios will be given. Configuration techniques for modifying inbound and outbound traffic flows are covered, as are some examples on how to use BGP communities in inter-AS relationships. The tutorial finishes by covering some common multihoming security issues.

BGP Troubleshooting Techniques

Level: Introductory to intermediate
Time: 90 minutes

This tutorial covers common problems ISPs have when deploying BGP within their network. It looks at problems with peer establishment, missing routes, inconsistent route selection, and convergence issues.
