Do you use or see FQDN capability?
by John Kristoff 19 Nov '25

19 Nov '25

I'd be interested in hearing if people set a hostname on their BGP routers and send it to peers (internal and/or external). I'm also interested in hearing if you see external peers sending it to you. I know BIRD and FRR support this capability, but I"m not aware of others and I'm guessing it is relatively rare in practice? Reference: <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-walton-bgp-hostname-capability-…> Yes, a long-expired draft. John

Apologies for failing to communicate that RFC1771 explicitly requires a unique routerID. --- 1. The BGP Identifier of the local system is compared to the BGP Identifier of the remote system (as specified in the OPEN message). 2. If the value of the local BGP Identifier is less than the remote one, the local system closes BGP connection that already exists (the one that is already in the OpenConfirm state), and accepts BGP connection initiated by the remote system. 3. Otherwise, the local system closes newly created BGP connection (the one associated with the newly received OPEN message), and continues to use the existing one (the one that is already in the OpenConfirm state). Comparing BGP Identifiers is done by treating them as (4-octet long) unsigned integers. --- Without unique routerID these two ASN may have identical routerID, therefore the collision mechanism does not work. -- ++ytti

Artificial Juniper SRX limitations preventing IPv6 deployment (and sales)
by Andrew Kirch 12 Nov '25

12 Nov '25

To those from Juniper, You are actively harming your own sales, and IPv6 deployment. On the SRX3xx line, Junos artificially limits update-router-advertisement to three downstream interfaces. In practice, that means the box will only automatically inject delegated IPv6 prefixes into RAs on three VLANs. This is not a hardware limit. This is not a throughput limit. This is not “the ASIC can’t handle it.” This is an arbitrary cap in software. Here is the operational problem: I have an SRX-340 acquired through Juniper, fully legitimate. It’s being used in my home. I have five VLANs: • management • desktops • servers • iot • guest On IPv4, this is trivial. Each VLAN is routable, each segment is isolated, everyone’s happy. On IPv6, because of this three-interface limit, I can only have automatic prefix delegation and router advertisements on three of those VLANs. After that, Junos just refuses the config. There is no documented way to extend it. There is no warning in the product literature that “this feature stops working at 3.” There is no published technical justification, in fact, I can't find anything published about this limit at all. The result is that I cannot deploy IPv6 cleanly across my entire network using Juniper’s intended/automated method. My choices are: • break my segmentation model to fit an undocumented limit, or • start doing manual RA gymnastics and scripting around Junos just to reach VLAN #4 and VLAN #5. Neither of those is what we should be calling “enterprise-ready IPv6.” It's not even "home-ready IPv6". It's embarrassing. One of the small branches where I installed an SRX-345 has over 40 vlans. We heavily segmented to protect the network from east-west movement, for compliance, and to prevent the spread of ransomware. This is exactly the kind of paper-cut that keeps corporate networks from rolling out IPv6 everywhere. It’s not that IPv6 is “hard.” It’s that Juniper quietly ship artificial restrictions and then make the fix “buy a bigger box that you otherwise don't need.” I for one am not buying it. If this is a licensing/commercial segmentation decision (“branch” products get three VLANs of working IPv6 and if you need more you’re supposed to move up-market and spend tens of thousands more), then please say that, on the record, so operators can plan accordingly (buy from another vendor) and so architects can see what they’re actually buying. If it’s not intentional product gating, then please remove the limit, and provide that to everyone who has bought an SRX-3xx. There is no technical reason an SRX-3xx should only be able to advertise delegated IPv6 prefixes on three VLANs. There are both hardware and software solutions that work as UTM firewalls for branch offices that don't have automatic limits. I am not beholden to Juniper, and I can/will buy other solutions if I have to. That is not helping IPv6 adoption. I opened a jcare ticket on it years ago, and got crickets, so now we're going to see if sunlight is the best disinfectant. I'm not your biggest customer but I've purchased well over $700,000 worth of Juniper gear and jcare. I'm asking that Juniper publicly commit to fixing this, because I assure you I can buy something else. Regards, Andrew Kirch AS401854

DHCP v6 for IPv4 Delegated prefrefix - Wan IPv6 Only to be routed with RFC8950
by Douglas Fischer 12 Nov '25

12 Nov '25

Trying to stay focused on IPv4 as a Service... I dream of being able to build a backbone that is truly IPv6 Only! But even taking some steps in 464xlat environments, there are still commercial demands that still impose the use of Dual-Stack. This is the case with clients who require (and pay for) a routed IPv4 address. I've been looking for a solution for some time to deliver a routed IPv4 address to the client, and to do so in a way that doesn't depend on exchanging information via email and similar means to let the client know which IPv4 block to use. Note 1: Almost all are business subscribers, and 95% of the time they purchase the delivery of an IPv4 /32 address as a service. In cases where we had access to the device, we frequently used DHCP IPv4 Option 121, pointing the routed block (/32, /31, or even /29) with the next-hop of the route pointing to the same IP address on the subscriber's side of the /30 link network with private IPs. The complex part is that the subscriber's "IT Guy" needs to have a minimum understanding of networking and know that they have to use those IPs as needed. In most cases, this is done in a loopback network, to be used as a VPN endpoint, for NAT... And in very rare cases, routed to the client's internal network to be used as a loopback for servers and similar things. We even developed some JerryRig scripts to retrieve this route information taught via DHCP IPv4 Option 121 and "semi-automate" the use of these IPs in loopbacks in address lists to facilitate client use. But this is only possible on CPEs where scripting is allowed, and even then it's a big challenge to handle multiple NOS on CPEs. My current goal is to find a way to deliver an IPv4 prefix to the subscriber and tell it, "This IPv4 block is delegated to you, and you use it as you see fit... And the default IPv4 route is the same IP as the default IPv6 route." Note2: I tried doing this with the 6PE format 0:0:0:0:0:ffff:IPv4_Block. But I haven't had success with common CPEs. I feel there's a good chance I'm reinventing the wheel. And this is already handled in some DHCPv6 options. And that's precisely why I'm asking my colleagues here if there's already something that can help me. If there isn't... Trying to keep the focus on IPv4 as a Service... Would it be too much to dream of setting something like that up? Note 3: I even considered JerryRiging the JerryRig. That would be a way to "teach via DHCPv6" that these clients have to establish a BGP session over IPv6 with IPv4 and IPv6 Address-Families. But I didn't see that this would help much in putting IPv4 in the loopback of the CPEs. So I left that aside. Any colleagues with suggestions on how to solve this type of problem? P.S.: Unfortunately, my customer base is still far from being able to do without IPv4. And handling things within the client's network IS NOT AN OPTION! Just like "464XLAT 1:1" isn't an option either due to the specific demands of the clients. -- Douglas Fernando Fischer Engº de Controle e Automação

Hardware question
by Craig Smith 10 Nov '25

10 Nov '25

Hello, Is anyone out there aware of a fail safe switch/router/1U server where upon power failure or watchdog event 2 ports would fail to pass through data, but could also be assigned an IP address and act as a bridge in "normal" mode? The desire is to have an appliance that could perform monitoring and send telemetry in between a customer device and an Internet connection but not create a single point of failure or require multiple ISP handoffs. Best, Craig
