VRF
###
:abbr:`VRF (Virtual Routing and Forwarding)` devices combined with ip rules
provides the ability to create virtual routing and forwarding domains (aka
VRFs, VRF-lite to be specific) in the Linux network stack. One use case is the
multi-tenancy problem where each tenant has their own unique routing tables and
in the very least need different default gateways.
Configuration
=============
A VRF device is created with an associated route table. Network interfaces are
then enslaved to a VRF device.
.. cfgcmd:: set vrf name <name>
Create new VRF instance with `<name>`. The name is used when placing individual
interfaces into the VRF.
.. cfgcmd:: set vrf name <name> table <id>
Configure use routing table `<id>` used by VRF `<name>`.
.. note:: A routing table ID can not be modified once it is assigned. It can
only be changed by deleting and re-adding the VRF instance.
.. cfgcmd:: set vrf bind-to-all
By default the scope of the port bindings for unbound sockets is limited to
the default VRF. That is, it will not be matched by packets arriving on
interfaces enslaved to a VRF and processes may bind to the same port if
they bind to a VRF.
TCP & UDP services running in the default VRF context (ie., not bound to any
VRF device) can work across all VRF domains by enabling this option.
Interfaces
----------
When VRFs are used it is not only mandatory to create a VRF but also the VRF
itself needs to be assigned to an interface.
.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces dummy <interface> vrf <name>
Assign dummy interface identified by `<interface>` to VRF named `<name>`.
.. warning:: VRFs are still experimental - thus they are only available to
certain interfaces types right now (``dummy``) to test out the
functionality.
Routing
-------
Static
^^^^^^
Static routes are manually configured routes, which, in general, cannot be
updated dynamically from information VyOS learns about the network topology from
other routing protocols. However, if a link fails, the router will remove
routes, including static routes, from the :abbr:`RIPB (Routing Information
Base)` that used this interface to reach the next hop. In general, static
routes should only be used for very simple network topologies, or to override
the behavior of a dynamic routing protocol for a small number of routes. The
collection of all routes the router has learned from its configuration or from
its dynamic routing protocols is stored in the RIB. Unicast routes are directly
used to determine the forwarding table used for unicast packet forwarding.
Static Routes
"""""""""""""
.. cfgcmd:: set protocols vrf <name> static route <subnet> next-hop <address>
Configure next-hop `<address>` for an IPv4 static route in the VRF identified
by `<name>`. Multiple static routes can be created.
.. cfgcmd:: set protocols vrf <name> static route <subnet> next-hop <address> disable
Disable IPv4 static route entry in the VRF identified by `<name>`
.. cfgcmd:: set protocols vrf <name> static route <subnet> next-hop <address> distance <distance>
Defines next-hop distance for this route, routes with smaller administrative
distance are elected prior those with a higher distance.
Range is 1 to 255, default is 1.
.. cfgcmd:: set protocols vrf <name> static route6 <subnet> next-hop <address>
Configure next-hop `<address>` for an IPv6 static route in the VRF identified
by `<name>`. Multiple IPv6 static routes can be created.
.. cfgcmd:: set protocols vrf <name> static route6 <subnet> next-hop <address> disable
Disable IPv6 static route entry in the VRF identified by `<name>`.
.. cfgcmd:: set protocols vrf <name> static route6 <subnet> next-hop <address> distance <distance>
Defines next-hop distance for this route, routes with smaller administrative
distance are elected prior those with a higher distance.
Range is 1 to 255, default is 1.
.. note:: Routes with a distance of 255 are effectively disabled and not
installed into the kernel.
Blackhole
"""""""""
.. cfgcmd:: set protocols vrf <name> static route <subnet> blackhole
Use this command to configure a "black-hole" route on the router. A
black-hole route is a route for which the system silently discard packets
that are matched. This prevents networks leaking out public interfaces, but
it does not prevent them from being used as a more specific route inside your
network.
.. cfgcmd:: set protocols vrf <name> static route <subnet> blackhole distance <distance>
Defines blackhole distance for this route, routes with smaller administrative
distance are elected prior those with a higher distance.
.. cfgcmd:: set protocols vrf <name> static route6 <subnet> blackhole
Use this command to configure a "black-hole" route on the router. A
black-hole route is a route for which the system silently discard packets
that are matched. This prevents networks leaking out public interfaces, but
it does not prevent them from being used as a more specific route inside your
network.
.. cfgcmd:: set protocols vrf <name> static route6 <subnet> blackhole distance <distance>
Defines blackhole distance for this route, routes with smaller administrative
distance are elected prior those with a higher distance.
