Static and Dynamic Routing Protocols, OSPF and BGP

We’re going to present Layer 3 (L3) configuration on Ufispace equipment, both static and dynamic, using protocols such as OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) and BGP (Border Gateway Protocol). Below is a guide to configuring these features.

1. Access to equipment

To start the configuration, you need to access the Ufispace device via the command line interface (CLI). We will demonstrate access via ssh, but it can also be done via serial connection and telnet.

ssh admin@ip_do_equipamento

2. Configuring L3 Interfaces

Configuration directly on the interface:

configure 

interface xe1 

  description interface fisica 

  ip address 192.168.1.1/24 

  ipv6 address 2001:db8:192:168:1:1/126 

  mtu 9198 

  enable-rsvp 

Example vlan Sub-Interface configuration. Using vlan 4 as an example.

Configure 

interface xe2.4 

  description subinterface vlan4 

  encapsulation dot1q 4 

  ip address 192.168.2.1/24 

  ipv6 address 2001:db8:192:168:2:1/126 

  mtu 9198 

  enable-rsvp 

3. Static Routing

To configure static routing, add static routes to the configuration:

configure 

ip route 10.0.0.0/24 192.168.1.254 

ip route 172.16.0.0/24 192.168.2.254 

ip route 172.16.44.0/24 192.168.3.254 

4. Configuring OSPF V4 and V6.

OSPF is a dynamic routing protocol widely used in corporate networks. To configure OSPF on the Ufispace device:

V4

configure 

router ospf 

  router-id 1.1.1.1 

  bfd all-interfaces 

  network 192.168.1.0/24 area 0.0.0.0 

  network 192.168.2.0/24 area 0.0.0.0 

V6

router ipv6 ospf 

 router-id 1.1.1.1 

 bfd all-interfaces 

Add the interfaces participating in OSPF using the following commands:

ip ospf network point-to-point 

ipv6 ospf network point-to-point instance-id 0 

ipv6 router ospf area 0.0.0.0 instance-id 0 

5. Configuration check

To check that the settings are correct and working:

show ip route 

show ip ospf neighbor 

6. Saving the configuration

Finally, save the configuration to ensure that the changes are retained after a reboot:

write memory 

Conclusion

Configuring static and dynamic routing on Ufispace equipment involves specific steps to define IP addresses on interfaces, add static routes and configure routing protocols such as OSPF and BGP. By following this guide, you can set up efficient and robust routing on your network.

By the end of this guide, you will be ready to configure static and dynamic routing on Ufispace devices, using protocols such as OSPF and BGP to ensure an efficient and robust network. Follow the steps carefully, and if you have any questions, consult the official documentation or seek expert assistance.
