Hello All! I just got my /24 setup over at vultr. Im trying to follow a generic VYOS guide to setup bgp. Im getting some errors when trying to setup the bgp network command. Im used to working with cisco stuff, never really configured anything else. Has anyone used VYOS for bgp? Or is there another router OS thats better to use. 73, Brian

Hello Brian, If you said the errors, maybe someone could help. I think VyOS is very much like Cisco, but I use Debian Linux and use the BIRD package to announce BGP to Vultr. Regards, Scott On Sat, Mar 23, 2019, 9:24 PM <brian(a)binded.net> wrote:

Hello Brian, I have used VyOS with Vultr before so if you let us know what errors you are seeing then I am sure that myself and others can help out. I’m not a fan of VyOS myself but it is the closest to Cisco so at least it will be more familiar to you than something like Bird on Linux. Thanks ~ Bryce, AS202313

Bryce,Here are the commands I put together from a few different guides out there to get bgp setup. I'm not even sure if it's correct.set protocols bgp 64970 neighbor 169.254.169.254 ebgp-multihop '2'set protocols bgp 64970 neighbor 169.254.169.254 remote-as '64515'set protocols bgp 64970 network '44.70.24.0/24'set protocols bgp 64970 parameters router-id 149.28.126.191Everything gets added okay, except for the network line. The error I get is this:Configuration path: protocols bgp 64970 [network] is not validSet failedWhen I do the ? After my asn, it doesn't even list network as being a config option.-BrianSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone -------- Original message --------From: "Bryce (B_M_Wilson) via 44Net" <44net(a)mailman.ampr.org> Date: 3/23/19 11:21 PM (GMT-05:00) To: AMPRNet working group <44net(a)mailman.ampr.org> Cc: "Bryce (B_M_Wilson)" <secret.memail.com(a)gmail.com> Subject: Re: [44net] Vultr & vyos bgp setup Hello Brian, I have used VyOS with Vultr before so if you let us know what errors you are seeing then I am sure that myself and others can help out.

Not really sure why my email client did that, but lets try this again... Bryce, Here are the commands I put together from a few different guides out there to get bgp setup. I'm not even sure if it's correct. set protocols bgp 64970 neighbor 169.254.169.254 ebgp-multihop '2' set protocols bgp 64970 neighbor 169.254.169.254 remote-as '64515' set protocols bgp 64970 network '44.70.24.0/24' set protocols bgp 64970 parameters router-id 149.28.126.191 Everything gets added okay, except for the network line. The error I get is this: Configuration path: protocols bgp 64970 [network] is not valid Set failed When I do the ?

Brian, Which vyos version are you using? They might have changed their config style Is 169.254.169.254 the peer ip you were given from Vultr? Ruben - ON3RVH

I'm using Mikrotik on vultr to announce a /24. It was really easy to set up that way. On Sat, Mar 23, 2019 at 9:22 PM <brian(a)binded.net> wrote:

Brian, What time zone are you in? I'm more than happy to remote to your computer and help you with this if you'd like? On Sun, Mar 24, 2019 at 1:23 AM <brian(a)binded.net> wrote:

Hey guys, After 8 hours of sleep and some waffles, i did some reading and figured out what the new command is for the 'network' line. It wasnt easy to find.... I also realized i forgot to put my BGP password in. Once i added my /24 network and password to my config, everything is working correctly. I have a dummy interface configured and can ping & traceroute from it to the world. Here are the commands i used: set protocols bgp <YOUR ASN> neighbor <PEER> ebgp-multihop '2' set protocols bgp <YOUR ASN> neighbor <PEER> remote-as '<Remote ASN>' set protocols bgp <YOUR ASN> neighbor <PEER> password <BGP PASSWORD> set protocols bgp <YOUR ASN> address-family ipv4-unicast network <AMPR BLOCK> set protocols bgp <YOUR ASN> parameters router-id <IP OF ROUTER> Not sure if a seperate static route was needed or if it would of worked off the default, but i added it anyways: set protocols static route <AMPR BLOCK> next-hop <IP OF ROUTER> distance '1' Thanks for all your replies! -Brian On 2019-03-24 09:39, Alistair Mackenzie via 44Net wrote:
