NimbostratusBGP Route redistribution
Hi Guys,
I'm playing around with BGP between F5 and Cisco and RHI and I have a quick question regarding route-maps matching.
F5 config: router bgp 1000 bgp graceful-restart restart-time 120 redistribute kernel route-map F5-JUN neighbor 172.24.101.6 remote-as 35000 neighbor 172.24.101.6 soft-reconfiguration inbound neighbor 172.24.101.6 capability graceful-restart ! ip prefix-list PREFIX seq 5 permit 192.168.200.0/24 ! route-map F5-JUN permit 10 match ip address prefix-list PREFIX
Cisco: router bgp 35000 bgp log-neighbor-changes neighbor 172.24.101.5 remote-as 1000
Configuration is quite simple, my VIP address is 192.168.200.1. My goal is to advertise /32s to cisco neighbor, without manipulating prefix-list every time there is new /32 from this subnet . When I'm using 192.168.200.0/24 in the prefix list, VS route is not being advertised to neighbor, which shouldn't be an issue as prefix-list is configured to match first 3 octets. Is this expected behavior in F5? Then when I reconfigure prefix list to exactly match that VIP (ip prefix-list PREFIX seq 5 permit 192.168.200.1/32) , route advertisement is working fine. I'm using BIG-IP v11.4.1HF3.

I think that command matches only that specific route - you need to put a modifier on the end such as
ip prefix-list PREFIX seq 5 permit 192.168.200.0/24 le 32Maybe you can check whether this is possible
juniorexusPete, this exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.
