&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;[[Category:Wiki]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Starting the OSPF Daemon ===&lt;br /&gt;
The OSPF daemon (ospfd) is used to configure Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) routing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
sudo systemctl start ospfd&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Starting the BGP Daemon ===&lt;br /&gt;
The BGP daemon (bgpd) configures Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
sudo systemctl start bgpd&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Configuring OSPF ==&lt;br /&gt;
To configure OSPF, the `ospfd.conf` file needs to be modified. This file is usually located in `/etc/quagga/ospfd.conf`.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Basic OSPF Configuration ===&lt;br /&gt;
A simple OSPF configuration might look like the following:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
router ospf&lt;br /&gt;
 network 192.168.1.0/24 area 0.0.0.0&lt;br /&gt;
 network 10.0.0.0/24 area 0.0.0.0&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This configures OSPF to advertise the `192.168.1.0/24` and `10.0.0.0/24` networks in OSPF area 0.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Adding a Router ID ===&lt;br /&gt;
The router ID is a unique identifier for OSPF. It can be specified like this:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
router ospf&lt;br /&gt;
 router-id 1.1.1.1&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Configuring OSPF Passive Interfaces ===&lt;br /&gt;
To prevent OSPF from sending hello packets on certain interfaces, use the `passive-interface` command:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
router ospf&lt;br /&gt;
 passive-interface eth0&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Configuring OSPF Authentication ===&lt;br /&gt;
To configure authentication for OSPF, the following can be added:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
router ospf&lt;br /&gt;
 area 0.0.0.0 authentication message-digest&lt;br /&gt;
 area 0.0.0.0 authentication-key mysecretkey&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Configuring BGP ==&lt;br /&gt;
To configure BGP, the `bgpd.conf` file needs to be edited, usually located in `/etc/quagga/bgpd.conf`.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Basic BGP Configuration ===&lt;br /&gt;
A basic BGP configuration for peering with a neighbor looks like:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
router bgp 65001&lt;br /&gt;
 neighbor 192.168.1.2 remote-as 65002&lt;br /&gt;
 network 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This example sets up a BGP session with a neighbor `192.168.1.2` in AS 65002 and advertises the `192.168.1.0/24` network.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Configuring BGP Route Reflectors ===&lt;br /&gt;
To set up a BGP route reflector, the following configuration can be used:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
router bgp 65001&lt;br /&gt;
 neighbor 192.168.2.2 route-reflector-client&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This will configure the neighbor `192.168.2.2` as a route reflector client.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Configuring BGP Aggregation ===&lt;br /&gt;
To aggregate BGP prefixes into a summary network, the following configuration can be used:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
router bgp 65001&lt;br /&gt;
 aggregate-address 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0 summary-only&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This aggregates the `192.168.0.0/16` network and only advertises the summary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Verifying Configuration ==&lt;br /&gt;
Once the configuration is in place, it&amp;#039;s important to verify that the protocols are running as expected.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Verifying OSPF Status ===&lt;br /&gt;
Use the following command to verify OSPF neighbors:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
vtysh -c &amp;quot;show ip ospf neighbor&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Verifying BGP Status ===&lt;br /&gt;
To check BGP status and routes, use the following:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
vtysh -c &amp;quot;show ip bgp summary&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Verifying Routes ===&lt;br /&gt;
To verify the routing table:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
vtysh -c &amp;quot;show ip route&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
