how-to configure a bgp-ls peer


I have brought up an Opendaylight instance in order to establish a BGP-LS session with our network and get topology information. So, the objective is to configure 1 peering with a router and get node, link,network information.

I have concluded that the documentation is more accurate over here: https://github.com/opendaylight/docs/blob/master/docs/user-guide/bgpcep-guide/bgp/bgp-user-guide-linkstate-family.rst

I have done this step https://github.com/opendaylight/docs/blob/master/docs/user-guide/bgpcep-guide/bgp/bgp-user-guide-running-bgp.rst and works.

Unfortunately, there are no such files like it is described here https://github.com/opendaylight/docs/blob/stable/lithium/manuals/user-guide/src/main/asciidoc/bgpcep/odl-bgpcep-bgp-all-user.adoc Meaning, I cannot locate 31-bgp.xml and 41-bgp-example.xml

I would like to ask if there are or can be derived somehow .xml files that describe fully all the parameters available, so that I can configure OpenDaylight by using these .xml files.

The examples mentioned in the first link are targeting a few specific parameters, and it is not about a nearly complete example.

Could you please advise how to:

  • get the necessary bgp-ls configuration .xml files that fully configure ODL as BGP speaker and a peering ?

Many Thanks.


Solution

  • These files has been removed as a part of task BGPCEP-685.

    You can still find them in previous release like here or here

    There is also wiki about configuring BGP peer.
