| + | **Error with mp_ methods** | ||
| + | |||
| + | There seems to be an issue with the Net::BGP module. | ||
| + | |||
| + | We are getting the following error with version 0.2 ''Can't locate object method "mp_unreach_nlri" via package "Net::BGP::Update" at brt-0.2.pl line 263, <$fh> line 2.'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | As a hack you can comment out the mp_unreach_nlri and mp_reach_nlri , you will lose the multipath updates. | ||

| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Download a route update file in MRT format. The easiest way is to download from a collector see http://archive.routeviews.org/ | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ==== 4.1 Convert the MRT format update file to a format acceptable by brt using bgpdump ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | BRT tool needs a human readable BGP update file | ||
| + | '' | ||
| + | BGP update file in human readable with Unix format (bgpdump -m option) | ||
| + | |||
| + | '' | ||
| + | |||
| + | Convert the file using bgpdump | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | bgpdump -m updates.20191101.0130 > updates.20191101.0130.bgpdump | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ===== 5. Now you can inject routes into the router table. ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Run BRT , use the -v to keep an eye on errors. | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | sudo perl brt-0.2.pl -brtas 300 -brtip 192.168.3.33 -peeras 400 -peerip 192.168.3.200 -f ~/updates.20191101.0130.bgpdump -v | ||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | Use the following command on the router | ||
| + | |||
| + | <code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | sh ip route | ||
| + | sh bgp summ | ||
| + | sh bgp neighbors | ||
| + | |||
| + | </code> | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | |||
