Implementing Enhanced Policy Based Routing

This section explains the procedures for configuring Enhanced Policy Based Routing (ePBR) with ACLs, MPLS-TE, and BGP Flow spec.

Configuring ACLs with Enhanced Policy Based Routing

Enhanced Policy based routing (ePBR) is used to direct packets that arrive at an interface to a specified next-hop. ePBR is very useful in managing a large number of configured access lists more efficiently.

In ePBR, the router drops the traffic packets if the next hop configured in the PBR policy is not reachable. To avoid packet loss in such scenarios, you must configure multiple next hops for each access control entry.

Restrictions

PBR is not supported on Pseudowire Headend (PHWE) subinterfaces.

Configuration

Use the following sample configuration to configure ACLs with ePBR.

/* Configure an access list */
Router(config)# ipv4 access-list INBOUND-ACL
Router(config-ipv4-acl)# 10 permit ipv4 any host 1.1.1.10
Router(config-ipv4-acl)# 20 permit ipv4 any host 1.2.3.4
Router(config-ipv4-acl)# commit
Mon Nov  6 17:22:42.529 IST
Router(config-ipv4-acl)# exit

/* Configure a class map for the access list */
Router(config)# class-map type traffic match-any INBOUND-CLASS
Router(config-cmap)# match access-group ipv4 INBOUND-ACL
Router(config-cmap)# end-class-map 
Router(config)# commit
Mon Nov  6 17:29:12.026 IST

/* Configure an ePBR policy map with the class map */
Router(config)# policy-map type pbr INBOUND-POLICY

Router(config-pmap-c)# redirect nexthop 192.168.10.1
Router(config-pmap-c)# exit
Router(config-pmap)# class type traffic class-default
Router(config-pmap-c)# transmit
Router(config-pmap-c)# commit
Mon Nov  6 17:25:33.858 IST
Router(config-pmap)# end-policy-map 

/* Configure a GigE interface and apply the ePBR policy map to the interface */
Router(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/0/0
Router(config-if)# ipv4 address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0
Router(config-if)# service-policy type pbr input INBOUND-POLICY 
Router(config-if)# commit

Using ePBR for MPLS Packets on Subscriber Interfaces

The enhanced policy based routing (ePBR) match/redirect MPLS packets on subscriber interfaces feature enables the capability to match MPLS labeled packets and redirect those to an external server by re-writing the source and destination IP addresses of the packets. This feature is applicable when the DNS server (an external server) is hidden in the MPLS cloud.

The traffic that is entering the MPLS cloud will be matched for a specific destination address and based on it, the new destination will be set. When the packet returns from the DNS server, the source address is changed back to the original source address.

Use Case: Using ePBR for MPLS Packets on Subscriber Interfaces

The ePBR match/redirect MPLS packets on subscriber Interfaces feature is applicable when a packet arrives at an interface with a destination address of a known server. This feature changes the known destination address to a required address that is hidden in the DNS cloud. For example, when the packet reaches a known interface with a specific IP address, say 10.0.0.1, it can to be redirected to a new IP address, say 172.16.0.1 , that is hidden in the cloud.

For subscriber to core DNS packets, the sequence for match and redirect is:

  • Match the incoming packet for the known DNS server. This address could be a local address on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Router, which the subscriber uses as DNS server address.

  • Set the destination address to a new IP address to which the packet has to be redirected.

This figure explains the match and redirect sequence for subscriber to core DNS packets.
Figure 1. Subscriber to core DNS packets


For core to subscriber DNS packets, the sequence for match and redirect is :

  • Match the incoming labeled DNS packet's source IP address from the core.

  • Set the source address to a local address, which the subscriber uses as DNS server address. The packet would be forwarded based on label + destination IP address, which is the subscriber address.

This figure explains the match and redirect sequence for core to subscriber DNS packets.

BGP Flowspec Client-Server (Controller) Model and Configuration with ePBR

The BGP Flowspec model comprises of a Client and a Server (Controller). The Controller is responsible for sending or injecting the flowspec NRLI entry. The client (acting as a BGP speaker) receives that NRLI and programs the hardware forwarding to act on the instruction from the Controller. An illustration of this model is provided below.

BGP Flowspec Client

Here, the Controller on the left-hand side injects the flowspec NRLI, and the client on the right-hand side receives the information, sends it to the flowspec manager, configures the ePBR (Enhanced Policy-based Routing) infrastructure, which in turn programs the hardware from the underlaying platform in use.

BGP Flowspec Controller

The Controller is configured using CLI to provide that entry for NRLI injection.

BGP Flowspec Configuration

  • BGP-side: You must enable the new address family for advertisement. This procedure is applicable for both the Client and the Controller. Enable BGP Flowspec explains the procedure.

    Client-side: No specific configuration, except availability of a flowspec-enabled peer.

  • Controller-side: This includes the policy-map definition and the association to the ePBR configuration consists of two procedures: the class definition, and using that class in ePBR to define the action. The following topics explain the procedure:

Configuring BGP Flowspec with ePBR

The following sections explain the procedures for configuring BGP flowspec with ePBR.

Use the following procedures to enable and configure the BGP flowspec feature:


Note
To save configuration changes, you must commit changes when the system prompts you.

Enable BGP Flowspec

You must enable the address family for propagating the BGP flowspec policy on both the Client and Server using the following steps:

SUMMARY STEPS

  1. configure
  2. router bgp as-number
  3. address-family { ipv4 | ipv6 | vpnv4 | vpnv6 } flowspec
  4. exit
  5. neighbor ip-address
  6. remote-as as-number
  7. address-family { ipv4 | ipv6 } flowspec

DETAILED STEPS

  Command or Action Purpose

Step 1

configure

Step 2

router bgp as-number

Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config)# router bgp 100

Specifies the autonomous system number and enters the BGP configuration mode, allowing you to configure the BGP routing process.

Step 3

address-family { ipv4 | ipv6 | vpnv4 | vpnv6 } flowspec

Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp)# address-family ipv4 flowspec

Specifies either the IPv4, IPv6, vpn4 or vpn6 address family and enters address family configuration submode, and initializes the global address family for flowspec policy mapping.

Step 4

exit

Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp-af)# exit

Returns the router to BGP configuration mode.

Step 5

neighbor ip-address

Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp)#neighbor 1.1.1.1

Places the router in neighbor configuration mode for BGP routing and configures the neighbor IP address as a BGP peer.

Step 6

remote-as as-number

Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp-nbr)#remote-as 100

Assigns a remote autonomous system number to the neighbor.

Step 7

address-family { ipv4 | ipv6 } flowspec

Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp)# address-family ipv4 flowspec

Specifies an address family and enters address family configuration submode, and initializes the global address family for flowspec policy mapping.

Configuring an address family for flowspec policy mapping: Example 
router bgp 100

 address-family ipv4 flowspec

 ! Initializes the global address family

 address-family ipv6 flowspec

 !

 neighbor 1.1.1.1

  remote-as 100

  address-family ipv4 flowspec

  ! Ties it to a neighbor configuration

  address-family ipv6 flowspec

  !

Configure a Class Map

In order to associate the ePBR configuration to BGP flowspec you must perform these sub-steps: define the class and use that class in ePBR to define the action. The steps to define the class include:

SUMMARY STEPS

  1. configure
  2. class-map [type traffic] [match-all] class-map-name
  3. match match-statement
  4. end-class-map

DETAILED STEPS

  Command or Action Purpose

Step 1

configure

Step 2

class-map [type traffic] [match-all] class-map-name

Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config)# class-map type traffic match all classc1

Creates a class map to be used for matching packets to the class whose name you specify and enters the class map configuration mode. If you specify match-any , one of the match criteria must be met for traffic entering the traffic class to be classified as part of the traffic class. This is the default. If you specify match-all , the traffic must match all the match criteria.

Step 3

match match-statement

Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-cmap)# match protocol ipv4 1 60

Configures the match criteria for a class map on the basis of the statement specified. Any combination of tuples 1-13 match statements can be specified here. The tuple definition possibilities include:

  • Type 1: match destination-address {ipv4 | ipv6} address/mask length
  • Type 2: match source-address {ipv4 | ipv6} address/mask length
  • Type 3: match protocol { protocol-value | min-value - max-value}
    Note 

    In case of IPv6, it will map to last next-header.

  • Type 4: Create two class-maps: one with source-port and another with destination-port:
    • match source-port { source-port-value | min-value - max-value}
      Note 

      Only up to 5 port numbers are supported in a single match string.
    • match destination-port { destination-port-value | min-value - max-value}
      Note 

      These are applicable only for TCP and UDP protocols.

  • Type 5: match destination-port {destination-port-value | [min-value - max-value]}
  • Type 6: match source-port {source-port-value | [min-value - max-value]}
  • Type 7: match { ipv4 | ipv6} icmp-code {value | min-value - max-value}
  • Type 8: match { ipv4 | ipv6} icmp-type {value | min-value - max-value}
  • Type 9: match tcp-flag value bit-mask mask_value
  • Type 10: match packet length { packet-length-value | min-value - max-value} }
  • Type 11: match dscp { dscp-value | min-value - max-value}
  • Type 12: match fragment-type { dont-fragment is-fragment first-fragment last-fragment}
  • Type 13: match ipv6 flow-label ipv4 flow-label { value | min-value - max-value}

BGP Flowspec Commands in the Routing Command Reference for Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers guide provides additional details on the various commands used for BGP flowspec configuration.

Step 4

end-class-map

Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-cmap)# end-class-map

Ends the class map configuration and returns the router to global configuration mode.

What to do next

Associate the class defined in this procedure to a PBR policy as described in Configure a Policy Map.

Step 7

end-policy-map

Example:

RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router(config-cmap)# end-policy-map

Ends the policy map configuration and returns the router to global configuration mode.

What to do next

Perform VRF and flowspec policy mapping for distribution of flowspec rules using the procedure explained in Link BGP Flowspec to ePBR Policies

Link BGP Flowspec to ePBR Policies

For BGP flowspec, an ePBR policy is applied on a per VRF basis, and this policy is applied on all the interfaces that are part of the VRF. If you have already configured a ePBR policy on an interface, it will not be overwritten by the BGP flowspec policy. If you remove the policy from an interface, ePBR infrastructure will automatically apply BGP flowspec policy on it, if one was active at the VRF level.

Note

At a time only one ePBR policy can be active on an interface.

Specifies whether the flowspec process is running on your system or not. The flowspec manager is responsible for creating, distributing and installing the flowspec rules on the hardware.

Step 2

show flowspec summary

Example:

# show flowspec summary

FlowSpec Manager Summary:
  Tables:                          2
  Flows:                           1
RP/0/3/CPU0:RA01_R4#

Provides a summary of the flowspec rules present on the entire node. In this example, the 2 table indicate that IPv4 and IPv6 has been enabled, and a single flow has been defined across the entire table.

Step 3

show flowspec vrf vrf_name | all { afli-all | ipv4 | ipv6 }

Example:


# show flowspec vrf default ipv4 summary

Flowspec VRF+AFI table summary:
VRF: default
  AFI: IPv4
    Total Flows:              1
    Total Service Policies:   1
RP/0/3/CPU0:RA01_R4#
---------------------------------------------------
# show flowspec vrf default ipv6 summary

Flowspec VRF+AFI table summary:
VRF: default
  AFI: IPv6
    Total Flows:              0
    Total Service Policies:   0
RP/0/3/CPU0:RA01_R4#
---------------------------------------------------
# show flowspec vrf all afi-all summary

Flowspec VRF+AFI table summary:
VRF: default
  AFI: IPv4
    Total Flows:              1
    Total Service Policies:   1
VRF: default
  AFI: IPv6
    Total Flows:              0
    Total Service Policies:   0
--------------------------------------------------
# show flowspec vrf default ipv4 Dest:110.1.1.0/24,

SPort:>=25&<=30,DSCP:=30 detail

AFI: IPv4
 Flow           :Dest:110.1.1.0/24,Source:10.1.1.0/24,
DPort:>=120&<=130,SPort:>=25&<=30,DSCP:=30
  Actions       :Traffic-rate: 0 bps  (bgp.1)
  Statistics                        (packets/bytes)

   Dropped             :                   0/0

In order to obtain more granular information on the flowspec, you can filter the show commands based on a particular address-family or by a specific VRF name. In this example, 'vrf default' indicates that the flowspec has been defined on the default table. The 'IPv4 summary' shows the IPv4 flowspec rules present on that default table. As there are no IPv6s configured, the value shows 'zero' for ipv6 summary 'Table Flows' and 'Policies' parameters. 'VRF all' displays information across all the VRFs configured on the table and afli-all displays information for all address families (IPv4 and IPv6).

The detail option displays the 'Matched', 'Transmitted, ' and 'Dropped' fields. These can be used to see if the flowspec rule you have defined is in action or not. If there is any traffic that takes this match condition, it indicates if any action has been taken (that is, how many packets were matched and whether these packets have been transmitted or dropped.

Step 4

show bgp ipv4 flowspec

Example:

# show bgp ipv4 flowspec Dest:110.1.1.0/24,Source:10.1.1.0/24,
DPort:>=120&<=130,SPort:>=25&<=30,DSCP:=30/208
BGP routing table entry for Dest:110.1.1.0/24,
Source:10.1.1.0/24,Proto:=47,DPort:>=120&<=130,SPort:>=25&<=30,DSCP:=30/208
<snip>
Paths: (1 available, best #1)
  Advertised to update-groups (with more than one peer):
    0.3
  Path #1: Received by speaker 0
  Advertised to update-groups (with more than one peer):
    0.3
  Local
    0.0.0.0 from 0.0.0.0 (3.3.3.3)
      Origin IGP, localpref 100, valid, redistributed, best, group-best
      Received Path ID 0, Local Path ID 1, version 42
      Extended community: FLOWSPEC Traffic-rate:100,0

Use this command to verify if a flowspec rule configured on the controller router is available on the BGP side. In this example, 'redistributed' indicates that the flowspec rule is not internally originated, but one that has been redistributed from the flowspec process to BGP. The extended community (BGP attribute used to send the match and action criteria to the peer routers) you have configured is also displayed here. In this example, the action defined is to rate limit the traffic.
