Filter small range from bigger advertise range from BGP neighbor

Hi,

 

I have BGP neighbor that advertise me big network range (51.16.0.0/15) and I would to filter this range and get only smaller range from it (51.17.72.0/22); I want that all the rest of this range continue to go through the default route like as always.

How can I do it?

 

I tried with prefixlist but it not working because its not the specific range that advertise to me.

 

This BGP neighbor can't split the bigger range that it advertise me and therefor I should filter it by my self.

 

I have Fortigate 500E v 6.4.15.

 

BR,

Sefi

Hi,

I guess you are receiving a summarized network from your peer, therefore no specific/smaller networks/prefixes can be filtered out of it.

Without him sending you all the networks, you cannot filter a specific one unfortunately.

You could just deny it/filter it out the /15 network and create a static route for the one that you want.
