| Description |
This article describes the case of BGP default route advertisement with as-path prepending. |
| Scope | FortiOS. |
| Solution |
There are two links between FortiGates. A default route should be advertised from FGT2 to FGT1 via BGP and one link should be preferred over the other.
On FGT2 two route-maps must be present, one will be used to advertise only the default route and the second will be used to prepend AS for the less preferred link.
Configuration used on FGT2:
FGT2 # show router static config router static end
FGT2 # show router prefix-list config router prefix-list edit "default_route_only" config rule edit 1 set prefix 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 unset ge unset le next end next end
FGT2 # show router route-map config router route-map edit "prepend_default_route" config rule edit 1 set set-aspath "64500 64500" next end next edit "default_route_only" config rule edit 1 set match-ip-address "default_route_only" next end next end
FGT2 # show router bgp config router bgp set as 64500 set router-id 1.1.1.1 set graceful-restart enable config neighbor edit "10.100.0.1" set activate6 disable set capability-graceful-restart enable set soft-reconfiguration enable set remote-as 64496 next edit "10.1.0.2" set activate6 disable set capability-graceful-restart enable set capability-default-originate enable set soft-reconfiguration enable set remote-as 64501 set route-map-out "default_route_only" next edit "10.2.0.2" set activate6 disable set capability-graceful-restart enable set capability-default-originate enable set soft-reconfiguration enable set default-originate-routemap "prepend_default_route" set remote-as 64501 set route-map-out "default_route_only" next end ... end
Configuration used on FGT1:
FGT1 # show router bgp config router bgp set as 64501 set router-id 9.9.9.9 set graceful-restart enable config neighbor edit "10.1.0.1" set activate6 disable set capability-graceful-restart enable set soft-reconfiguration enable set remote-as 64500 next edit "10.2.0.1" set activate6 disable set capability-graceful-restart enable set soft-reconfiguration enable set remote-as 64500 next end ... end
FGT1 # show router static config router static end

Important: Note that the 'prepend_default_route' route-map rule does not contain match-ip-address. If the match-ip-address is specified (for example 'route-map' 'default_route_only') this would require having the route in the routing table (for example static blackhole route), otherwise this route-map would not be matched and the AS will not be prepended.
