(Optional) Controlling the Size of the MIGP Routing Table

You can configure a filtering policy based on the multicast source address so that the router adds only the routes destined to the specified multicast source address to the independent Multicast IGP (MIGP) routing table, which controls the size of the MIGP routing table.

Context

After IS-IS local MT is enabled, if the outbound interface of a calculated route is an IGP Shortcut-enabled TE tunnel interface, the routing management (RM) module creates an MIGP routing table, calculates a physical outbound interface for the route, and adds the route to the MIGP routing table. To control the number of entries in the MIGP routing table, speed up the MIGP routing table lookup, and reduce memory resource consumption, configure a filtering policy to enable a device to add only the matching routes to the multicast source address to the MIGP routing table.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run isis [ process-id ]

    The IS-IS view is displayed.

  3. Configure a local MT routing policy.

    Run any of the following commands as required:

    • Based on the basic ACL:
      1. Run local-mt filter-policy acl { acl-number | acl-name }

        A policy is configured for IS-IS local MT.

      2. Run quit

        Return to the system view.

      3. Run acl { name basic-acl-name { basic | [ basic ] number basic-acl-number } | [ number ] basic-acl-number } [ match-order { config | auto } ]

        The basic ACL view is displayed.

      4. Run rule [ rule-id ] [ name rule-name ] { deny | permit } [ fragment-type { fragment | non-fragment | non-subseq | fragment-subseq | fragment-spe-first } | source { source-ip-address { source-wildcard | 0 | src-netmask } | any } | time-range time-name | vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ] *

        The rule for the basic ACL is configured.

        When the rule command is run to configure rules for a named ACL, only the source address range specified by source and the time period specified by time-range are valid as the rules.

        When a filtering policy of a routing protocol is used to filter routes:
        • If the action specified in an ACL rule is permit, a route that matches the rule will be received or advertised by the system.

        • If the action specified in an ACL rule is deny, a route that matches the rule will not be received or advertised by the system.

        • If a route has not matched any ACL rules, the route will not be received or advertised by the system.

        • If an ACL does not contain any rules, all routes matching the route-policy that references the ACL will not be received or advertised by the system.

        • In the configuration order, the system first matches a route with a rule that has a smaller number and then matches the route with a rule with a larger number. Routes can be filtered using a blacklist or a whitelist:

          Route filtering using a blacklist: Configure a rule with a smaller number and specify the action deny in this rule to filter out the unwanted routes. Then, configure another rule with a larger number in the same ACL and specify the action permit in this rule to receive or advertise the other routes.

          Route filtering using a whitelist: Configure a rule with a smaller number and specify the action permit in this rule to permit the routes to be received or advertised by the system. Then, configure another rule with a larger number in the same ACL and specify the action deny in this rule to filter out unwanted routes.

    • Based on the IP prefix:

      Run local-mt filter-policy ip-prefix ip-prefix-name

    After you configure the routing policy, the device adds only the matching routes to the multicast source address to the MIGP routing table.

  4. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
