cnp3-ebook/exercises/routing-protocols — French @ Weblate: Another interesting utilization IPMininet

	English	French	Actions
	The first of these two routes is preferred as indicated by the `>` character because it has a higher ``local-preference` (150) than the second one (100). For prefix ``2001:cafe:3::/48``, the route learned via ``fe80::3c81:2eff:fe19:465d`` is also preferred for the same reason.
	IPMininet_ also allows to explore the dynamics of BGP by looking at the packets that the routers exchange. For this, we slightly modify the example above and add delays to the interdomain links as follows.
	We also add a ``post_build`` method to launch tcpdump_ and capture the BGP packets exchanged by the routers. A BGP session runs over a TCP connection. Let us examine a few of the BGP messages exchanged on the BGP session between ``AS1`` and ``AS2``. The traces collected on the three routers are available from :download:`/exercises/traces/bgp-as1-trace.pcap`, :download:`/exercises/traces/bgp-as2-trace.pcap` and :download:`/exercises/traces/bgp-as2-trace.pcap`.
	The BGP session starts with a TCP three-way handshake. Once the session has been established, both BGP daemons send an ``OPEN`` message describing their capabilities and the BGP extensions that it supports. The details of these extensions go beyond the scope of this book. However, it is important to note that the ``OPEN`` message contains the ``AS`` number of the router that sends the message and its identifier as a 32 bits IPv4 address. This router identifier uniquely identifies the router. The last mandatory parameter of the ``OPEN`` message is the `Hold Time`, i.e. the maximum delay between two successive messages over this BGP session. A BGP router should send ``KEEPALIVE`` messages every one third of the `Hold Time` to keep the session up.
	The ``UPDATE`` message can be used to withdraw and advertise routes. The packet below is sent by ``AS2`` to advertise its route towards `2001:cafe:2::/48` on the BGP session with ``AS1``.
	Another interesting utilization of IPMininet_ is to explore how routers react to link failures. We start from the same network as with the previous example and disable the link between ``AS2`` and ``AS3``. For this, we log on one of the two routers and issue the following commands.
	We first connect to the BGP daemon on router `as2`. In addition to the `show` commands that have been described earlier, the router also supports privileged commands that can change its configuration. Before executing these commands, we must enter the privileged mode with the `enable` command. On production routers, this command requires a password to verify the credentials of the network administrator. The `#` prompt indicates that we are allowed to execute privileged commands. We first check the state of the BGP sessions with the `show bgp summary` commands. There are two BGP sessions configured on this router.
	We can now disable one of the BGP sessions on router `as2` as follows.
	We start indicate that we will use the terminal to change the router configuration with `configure terminal`. We then enter the BGP part of the configuration with `router bgp 2` (`2` is the AS number of `as2`). Then we use the `neighbor 2001:cafe:2:23::3 shutdown` that takes as parameter the IP address of the peer of the session that we want to stop. We then leave the BGP part of the configuration (first `exit`) and the configuration menu (second `exit` command). At this point, the BGP session between ``AS2`` and ``AS3`` is down.
	Without a BGP session between ``AS2`` and ``AS3``, there are reachability problems in this simple Internet.
	We can fix them by enabling again the BGP session with the `no neighbor 2001:cafe:2:23::3 shutdown` command.
	Exercises
	We can use IPMininet_ to prepare some networks with problems that need to be analyzed and corrected.
	Our first example is a small Internet with 5 ASes. A subset of the script that configures this network is shown below. There is one host attached to each AS and this host has the same number as its AS. The entire script is available from :download:`/exercises/ipmininet_scripts/ebgp-bug.py`.
	When this network is launched, `ping6all` reports connectivity problems. Hosts `h1` and `h4` cannot exchange packets. Can you fix the problem by changing the routing policy used on only one interdomain link ? Justify your answer
	Another interesting utilization IPMininet_ is to explore the impact of a link failure. We start from a small variant of the above topology.
	When this network starts, all hosts can reach all other hosts.
	Draw the network and try to predict how it will react to a shutdown of any of the customer-provider links ?
	What are the BGP messages that will be exchanged when the link between ``AS1`` and ``AS2`` fails ? How does this affect the reachability of the different hosts ?
	What are the BGP messages that will be exchanged when the link between ``AS1`` and ``AS3`` fails ? How does this affect the reachability of the different hosts ?
	What are the BGP messages that will be exchanged when the link between ``AS1`` and ``AS5`` fails ? How does this affect the reachability of the different hosts ?
	What are the BGP messages that will be exchanged when the link between ``AS3`` and ``AS4`` fails ? How does this affect the reachability of the different hosts ?
	Let us now consider another example. The network contains nine ASes with one host per AS. Assuming that ``AS9`` announces prefix `p9` and that ``AS2`` announces prefix `p2`.
	What is the Loc-RIB of ``AS6`` for prefix `p9` ? Indicate which is the best route towards this prefix.
	What is the Loc-RIB of ``AS9`` for prefix `p2` ? Indicate which is the best route towards this prefix.
	The network below contains nine ASes with one host per AS. Assuming that ``AS1`` announces prefix `p1` and that ``AS2`` announces prefix `p2`.
	What is the Loc-RIB of ``AS6`` for prefix `p1` ? Indicate which is the best route towards this prefix.
	What is the Loc-RIB of ``AS8`` for prefix `p2` ? Indicate which is the best route towards this prefix.
	Let us now consider another example, also implemented using an IPMininet_ script. The network contains eight ASes with one host per AS. This small Internet is shown below and the script is available from :download:`/exercises/ipmininet_scripts/ebgp-bug-3.py`.
	The network does not provide a full connectivity. The hosts attached to ``AS5`` cannot ping the hosts attached to ``AS8``.
	What is the path that packets follow from a host attached to ``AS1`` to a host attached to ``AS8`` ?
