ISIS ExternalRoute Tests and Use Cases

The document outlines the compatibility and use cases for ISIS External Routes in VOSS 5.0, detailing the necessary software versions for various network devices. It explores five specific use cases involving routing between ISIS (SPB) and other IP routing protocols, emphasizing redundancy and traffic management strategies. Additionally, it includes configuration examples and challenges related to routing loops in a multi-protocol environment.

Compatibility Warning

▪ ISIS External Routes are new in VOSS 5.0

▪ The following nodes can co-exist in an SPB Fabric using ISIS External
routes, but they will treat ISIS External routes just as if they were Internal
Routes; they must however have these minimal software versions:
▪ VOSS VPS with software versions 4.2.1.x
▪ VSP9000 with software version 4.1.0.0 or later
▪ ERS8600 or ERS8800 with software version 7.2.23.0 or later
▪ ERS4900/5900 running IP Shortcuts with software version 7.2.0 or later
▪ ERS4800 running IP Shortcuts since version 5.10.0
– These older devices thus cannot be used as border routers in use case
examples 1,2,3,5 but can operate as non-border routers just fine (as illustrated
in example 3); in the use case 4 they can operate though only if the Primary
Firewall BEB is the only BEB to announce the ISIS default route

▪ ISIS Accept Policies and ISIS 1. Routing between ISIS (SPB)

External Routes are leveraged in and other IP routing protocols
the following 5 use cases with redundant border routers
▪ In the first 3 cases both border 2. Routing between ISIS (SPB)
routers IP route between the two and other IP routing protocols
clouds in an active-active fashion with many redundant
▪ In the last 2 cases the requirement boundaries
is that all traffic be IP routed over a
Primary path, and only fail over to 3. Routing between two
the Secondary path in case of separate SPB Fabrics
Primary path failure
▪ It is quite possible that there is more
than one way to achieve the desired
goal in each use case 4. Routing towards a Primary
▪ The objective of this deck is also to Firewall
show the different approaches we
have in our armory now (e.g. match
or set external metric in either
redistribution or accept policies); 5. Routing between ISIS (SPB)
flexibility is key and BGP(MPLS) using
Primary & Backup paths

▪ GOAL = IP route between the two clouds

– SPB (ISIS) Fabric IP routes are redistributed to OSPF, RIP or BGP in one direction
– OSPF, RIP or BGP routes are redistributed into ISIS in the opposite direction
– Two border routers are used for redundancy, and both can forward traffic at the same time
▪ CHALLENGE = not to get into routing loops where the IP routes redistributed by one
router in one direction end up being re-redistributed to the same cloud where they came
from by the other router
▪ These slides will use an OSPF Cloud; but the same config and principles will equally work
for BGP & RIP

▪ Ok, so what’s happening here is that VSP8000-1 was slightly quicker than ▪ So VSP8000-2 replaces in its routing table the OSPF routes with the ISIS ones
VSP8000-2 in redistributing OSPF routes into ISIS ▪ Now VSP8000-2 is no longer redistributing the OSPF routes into ISIS, since it
▪ So VSP8000-2 now sees the same IP routes from both OSPF & ISIS has none in its routing table
▪ ISIS has a higher protocol preference (7 is lower than OSPF’s 20 or 125) ▪ This state of affairs remains stable in the current state, but it clearly is not
optimal

▪ This ISIS Accept policy ensures that the 2 VSP8000 border routers will only accept ISIS “External” routes with a
modified preference of 130 (instead of SPB’s default preference 7)
▪ OSPF routes have preference levels ranging between 20, 25,120 or 125 (depending on OSPF route type)
▪ Hence we are ensuring that the border routers will never install ISIS External routes (from each other) as long as
they have the original OSPF routes

▪ Here we see that the border VSP8000s learn from each other the already redistributed OSPF routes as ISIS External routes, but
our Accept policy ensures they get a preference of 130 (in orange) which ensures that these will not displace the preferred OSPF

▪ In the reverse direction, we now redistribute only IS-IS Internal routes into as-boundary-router enable
OSPF redistribute isis
– OSPF routes were redistributed into ISIS as External routes, so by redistributing redistribute isis route-map isis-internal
only ISIS Internal routes into OSPF we can be sure that no IP route which redistribute isis enable
originated from OSPF will ever be reflected back into OSPF exit
▪ NOTE: VSP8000-1 & VSP8000-2 need to be OSPF ASBRs ip ospf apply redistribute isis

▪ NOTE: In older versions of VOSS software the command to assign a route-

map to an OSPF redistribution was “redistribute <proto> route-policy” and not
“redistribute <proto> route-map”

▪ ISIS routes are preferred over OSPF ones, so the “alternative” OSPF routes that the VSP8000s learn
from each other for ISIS networks that have been re-distributed into OSPF will not get installed
▪ However, if those ISIS routes were to become unavailable (e.g. reboot of VSP4000) then both
VSP8000s would immediately remove the ISIS routes and replace them with these alternative OSPF
routes, which would cause a temporary route flapping, with both VSP8000s temporarily announcing
those routes back into ISIS (which is where they originated from!)
– Same applies in reverse, for OSPF routes advertised into ISIS, for which we have upped the preference
to 130
▪ The best approach is to simply disable alternative IP routes on the border routers, which is what we
are doing here. This approach will also work with a RIP or BGP cloud

▪ We are also taking the pre-caution of configuring a corresponding static black- route-map "isis-internal-aggregate" 2
hole route for 172.16.0.0/16 on the VSP8000s with a preference of 8 match metric-type-isis internal
– This is a good idea whenever aggregating IP routes. There are 254 possible enable
Class C routes within 172.16.0.0/16, but we only have 4 active. If the exit
VSP8000s had a default route in their routing table and the OSPF cloud router ospf
started forwarding traffic for network 172.16.100.100, this traffic would go into a
redistribute isis route-map "isis-internal-aggregate"
routing loop until expiry of IP TTL. The static black hole route will prevent this
from happening. exit
ip ospf apply redistribute isis
– We set a preference of 8 so that should the prefix 172.16.0.0/16 be ISIS ip route 172.16.0.0 255.255.0.0 255.255.255.255 weight 65535 preference 8
advertised by some other BEB in the ISIS cloud, this will have a higher
preference of 7 and will automatically replace the static black-hole route

▪ We replace our original “isis-internal” route-map with a new route-map
ip prefix-list "default" 0.0.0.0/0
for the existing ISIS ➔ OSPF redistribution route-map "inject-default" 1
▪ The route-map policy will match any (ISIS) route but replace it with set injectlist "default"
(inject) a default route enable
exit
– Should one of the VSP8000 remain isolated from the SPB Fabric, then it router ospf
will have no ISIS routes to redistribute and will cease to announce a redistribute isis route-policy "inject-default"
default route into OSPF exit
▪ We are also taking the pre-caution of configuring a corresponding ip ospf apply redistribute isis
default static black-hole route on the VSP8000s with a preference of 8 ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 weight 65535 preference 8

– If a valid ISIS default route exists, this will have a higher preference of 7
and will replace the static black-hole default route
– If a valid ISIS default route does not exist, then any traffic received from
OSPF (after following the default route to SPB) which cannot be handled
via more specific routes, will be dropped on the VSP8000s

▪ We now have an SPB ISIS Core and a number (>1) of satellite networks running a different IP routing protocol
▪ GOAL = IP route across all the clouds
– OSPF, RIP or BGP routes from all the satellite clouds are redistributed into ISIS
– SPB (ISIS) Fabric IP routes are redistributed in the opposite direction
– IP routes from one satellite cloud need to be redistributed into the other satellite clouds
– Two border routers are used for redundancy on each boundary, and both can forward traffic at the same time
▪ CHALLENGE = not to get into routing loops where the IP routes redistributed by one router in one direction end
up being re-redistributed to the same cloud where they came from by the other router on the same boundary

▪ This ISIS Accept policy ensures that a border router in charge of ISIS ➔ OSPF/RIP redistribution will only accept from his border peer ISIS “External”
routes with a modified preference of 130 (instead of SPB’s default preference 7)
– OSPF routes have preference levels ranging between 20, 25,120 or 125 (depending on OSPF route type) and RIP always has preference 100
▪ Hence we are ensuring that a border router will never install ISIS External routes from its border peer as long as it has the original OSPF/RIP routes
▪ NOTE that the same configuration would equally work if 3 or more border routers were used on a given boundary

IP routes

▪ GOAL = IP route between the 2 SPB Fabrics

– An SPB node can only belong to a single Fabric, hence the boundary will be the interconnecting links
– We run RIPv2 on the these links as this provides an effective and simpler approach than using BGP
▪ Assuming that both Fabrics are under the same administrative domain; if not, then BGP might be more appropriate
– Two border routers are used for redundancy on each boundary, and both can forward traffic at the same time
▪ CHALLENGE = not to get into routing loops where the IP routes redistributed over one border link in one
direction end up being re-redistributed to the same SPB Fabric where they came from over the other
border link

▪ RIP is not known as being fast to converge

▪ But in this deployment model, RIP is running over a single link and failure of that
link immediately removes all RIP routes on the Fabric boundary node, so the
solution provides sub-second failover anyway
▪ Link restoration is also quick as a RIP update will immediately be sent as soon as
the RIP link is restored

▪ Both Primary and Secondary FWs advertise the same IP route(s)

– Typically a default route
▪ The goal is to make all SPB Fabric nodes always go to the Primary FW (even if the
Secondary FW, connected to VSP-2 is on an SPB shortest path)
▪ This is not possible using ISIS “Internal” IP routes, because the IP route with the lowest
SPB internal metric (SPB path to VSP-1 vs SPB path to VSP-2) will always be preferred
– Even if the Primary FW IP route metric is made lower (on VSP-1) than the metric used for the
same route to the Secondary FW (on VSP-2)
– ➔ VSP-4 will always prefer to go to VSP-2, because a shorter SPB path than going to VSP-1

▪ We still have a little problem in that ▪ Static routes by default have a higher preference (5) than
ISIS (7)
VSP8000-2 prefers its static route ▪ We could just decrease the preference of the VSP8000-2
– This may or may not be a problem

▪ In fact, by doing this, VSP8000-2 is now no longer redistributing a default route into ISIS (because its

▪ It is desired that all traffic flowing between the SPB cloud and the BGP cloud follow the Primary path
over VSP8000-1 and that the path over VSP8000-2 only be used in case of failure of the Primary path
▪ Configuration should avoid spelling out individual subnets in redistribution route-maps
– I.e. if new BGP or ISIS subnets appear, there should be no need to reconfigure the redistribution on the
border routers
▪ (a) Case where SPB GRT IP Shortcuts are used
– Following BGP by the book, and using iBGP with local-pref attribute between VSP8000-1 & VSP8000-2
▪ (b) Case where SPB VRF L3VSN is used
– We lack iBGP support on VRFs; so here we have to use a different approach in order to avoid BGP routes
from distant ASes (here 65003) being reflected back into the MPLS core network

▪ VSP8000-2 still has an iBGP route (pref = 175) which means that our ISIS Accept policy to reject the
ISIS External routes from iBGP peer is working
