hi natrajan,
btw i just realized that it was you who hacked who provided the code?
would you mind joining the team @ github? if yess, please give us your
github handle and frederic will invite you too to be able to contribute
directly! :)
thanks,
cs

hi,

you're crazy good! i never ever thought that you really will contribute code
fixes to freerouter... :)

so yesss the missing addUpdatedTable() calls yeahh.... i just realized that a
lot more were missing there,
this was my first idea:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/rare-freertr/freeRtr/commit/509a5ada3ee69c47227583a06ca23f1709181de3__;!!NEt6yMaO-gk!GFj6D2gei3RHnHIHNnTMM3v4iAvIr4RH1zRe5I0ivIHBY_QTxa0hztpVKLXfamnsFGKXOA$
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/github.com/rare-freertr/freeRtr/commit/509a5ada3ee69c47227583a06ca23f1709181de3__;!!NEt6yMaO-gk!GFj6D2gei3RHnHIHNnTMM3v4iAvIr4RH1zRe5I0ivIHBY_QTxa0hztpVKLXfamnsFGKXOA$>

here the labelled and the ipv6-labelled-over-v4 and ipv6-ctp-over-v4 were
also missing...
but then i checked the tabRoute.addUpdatedTable code that it does not have
any clue if
the afi is even active so it would add the same prefix multiple times so
instead i came
up with this:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/rare-freertr/freeRtr/commit/1aeb9410d51eb530450859107e2834ffce63d106__;!!NEt6yMaO-gk!GFj6D2gei3RHnHIHNnTMM3v4iAvIr4RH1zRe5I0ivIHBY_QTxa0hztpVKLXfamnfDDsuJg$
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/github.com/rare-freertr/freeRtr/commit/1aeb9410d51eb530450859107e2834ffce63d106__;!!NEt6yMaO-gk!GFj6D2gei3RHnHIHNnTMM3v4iAvIr4RH1zRe5I0ivIHBY_QTxa0hztpVKLXfamnfDDsuJg$>

basically the main idea is that i check if the afi is active and call the
addUpdatedTable()
only if the proper afi was negotiated, so each prefix will be added only
once... could you
please check if this still works for you? (just asking because this part of
the code only
reachable if you configured soft-reconfig-inbound which is somewhat uncommon
after the
widespread of route-refresh message...)



regarding the bgp invalid update, and your side complained about the
malformed header, then
i quickly decoded and it's a 15936 bytes update whereas bgp allows only 4096
soo you're right... :)
well, it's a huge dump and what we're staring at is a result of a series of
other events that
resulted in this invalid update message... it's hard to reconstruct just from
this so can i ask
you as you already can reproduce it, do the following to the freerouter:

router bgp4 1
dump mrt ./bgp4.mrt
neighbor all.you.have.here dump mrt

and let it run for a hour to collect enough updates and series of events to
be able to see what could be the cause?

then i can do a lot more with this:
"packet mrt2pcap aaa.mrt zzz.pcap" or even more fun: "packet mrt2bgp will replay
..."
in the lab then hopefully your stream wull hit the same invalid update as a
result... :)


ps:
while the ci-cd runs against the second commit, i was thinking and i have the
idea that
the latest-greatest (with the check for the double addition to the table)
will solve the
huuge update problem, but let's see.... :)

thanks,
cs

Hi Csaba/All,

There is some exciting news to share.

FreeRTR transits traffic colorfully!

The configs/code-change/bug-report can be found in the attachments.

ASBR22:

CT routes learned from ASBR21 will resolve via best effort

LDP in V1 (Same as previous BGP-CT InterOp Demo)

BUGS:

@ASBR-21: ASBR11-ASBR21 EBGP session flap due to Bad Packet

from FreeRTR to JUNOS.

This issue does not arise when the config is initially loaded

but about 5 minutes since the EBGP session towards ASBR11

comes up. The initial CT advertisements go correctly with

right encoding and packet length and ASBR11 accepts and

forms the End-to-End Path. Ping succeeded on End to End Path.

However, ASBR11 after ~5 mins, gets malformed update from

FreeRTR and terminates the session. This needs to be fixed.

I have attached the malformed packet and full-configs.

Thanks,

-Nats-

it took more than expected sorry....

please find attached the topology what i now pretty sure will work with the 2
ebgp vpnv4 and 1 bgp-ct for the colors...

at this time i used more descriptive vrf names like core, blue (a color of
the core) red (same) and cust[1,2]

the cpes (r1, r2, r6, r7) are dump default route, the r3 is a single pe, have
a ebgp-bgp-ct and 2 ebgp-vpnv4,
whereas r4 have just ebgp-bgp-ct, plus isis toward r5... r5 have ibgp-bgp-ct
to r4, plus ebgp-vpnv4 to r3...

when i initiate some ping flood, i see different counters in "display mpls
forwarding" in r4 so they're separated...

r1#ping 3.3.3.5 vrf cust1 size 1111 repeat 11111111
r2#ping 4.4.4.5 vrf cust2 size 1111 repeat 11111111

now i have some smaller stuff but soon i'll study if i can add the "afi-vrf cust1
resolve-in blue" easily or not :)))

thanks,
cs

maybe a new variable int that class like (afi-vrf blue) "underlays <vrf1>

>>> Hi Csaba,

>>> We tried experimenting the new free-rtr code for colorful
resolution with the configuration that you had shared. However we are hitting a few
roadblocks that needs to be

>>> The topology is as same as the demo that was performed in IETF 115
where resolution was happening via LDP best effort for BGP CT route in ASBR21 received
from ASBR22
(10.22.22.22).
>>> However, we modified the demo based on the configs shared by you
for colorful resolution.
>>>
>>> We have attached the Old and New configs for your reference for
ASBR21. Rest of the configs (P2, ASR22) are more or less the same. You can refer to
the topology from the demo
