How to implement BGP and eBGP on Palo

L1 Bithead

Hi,

I am migrating WatchGuard to Palo and there seems to be a lot more configuration options on the Palo. 

 

WatchGuard configuration is below. What is the best way to configure this within Palo?

Where is the option to set default-originate?

 

router bgp 64801
bgp router-id 169.254.3.3
timers bgp 4 12
neighbor 10.200.34.2 remote-as 64601
neighbor 10.200.34.3 remote-as 64601
neighbor 10.200.52.2 remote-as 64601
neighbor 10.200.52.3 remote-as 64601
neighbor 10.200.64.130 remote-as 64601
neighbor 10.200.64.131 remote-as 64601
neighbor 10.200.34.2 default-originate
neighbor 10.200.34.3 default-originate
neighbor 10.200.52.2 default-originate
neighbor 10.200.52.3 default-originate
neighbor 10.200.64.130 default-originate
neighbor 10.200.64.131 default-originate
neighbor 10.200.34.2 ebgp-multihop 4
neighbor 10.200.34.3 ebgp-multihop 4
neighbor 10.200.52.2 ebgp-multihop 4
neighbor 10.200.52.3 ebgp-multihop 4
neighbor 10.200.64.130 ebgp-multihop 4
neighbor 10.200.64.131 ebgp-multihop 4

For default-originate -- In GUI,, go to Network -- Virtual Router --  <VR name or default> --- BGP --- Redist Rule and  add a Redistribution rule for ip subnet 0.0.0.0/0 and enable "Allow Redistribute Default route" option ..

 

Also,, use the below config example as template. This should give you clues on how and where, you can change the timer settings and TTL value (ebgp-multihop), etc..

BTW,, if you need the BGP learned best routes to be installed in the routing table, add this from CLI.
