BGP Tunnel with Amazon

Hello folks!

I created two BGP VPN tunnels with Amazon about a week ago. All worked fine, but at some point we started learning from them our networks... 

After that I created import routemap, it solved the problem:

set routemap bgp_import id 10 on
set routemap bgp_import id 10 allow
set routemap bgp_import id 10 match network 10.10.1.0/24 exact
set routemap bgp_import id 10 match network 10.10.2.0/24 exact
set routemap bgp_import id 10 match network 10.10.3.0/24 exact
set bgp external remote-as 5555 import-routemap bgp_import preference 1 on

 

I have a few questions please.

1. Do I need to add restrict routemap here (in the example above)?

2. In webui (Route Redistribution) I have specified a number of networks (match type: exact), to advertise to AWS AS.

Do I need to create routemap export or route redistribution will be enough?

Thank you!

I dont believe you need to do anything in web UI, as routemaps would always take precedence anyway.

Right, but it was part of AWS procedure, to route redistributions (print screen above).

 

Any chance anyone has experience/best practice with that?

I cant speak for other people, only from my own experience with this and what worked. So, to answer your ?s...

1. Do I need to add restrict routemap here (in the example above)?

I never had to

2. In webui (Route Redistribution) I have specified a number of networks (match type: exact), to advertise to AWS AS.

Route redistribution will work IF no routemap is configured. Otherwise, routemaps will take precedence.

easist way to fix that is by inbound route filter
