IWASE Yusuke 985e2557b2 BGPSpeaker: Support Ethernet VPN update messages
This patch enables BGPSpeaker to advertise BGP EVPN routes and
store the advertised BGP EVPN routes from the neighbors.

TODO:
 - To support the VRF table for BGP EVPN routes.
   This patch supports the global table only.
 - To implement Multihoming Functions.
   Currently, ONLY Single-Homing is supported.

BGP speaker library

Introduction

Ryu BGP speaker library helps you to enable your code to speak BGP protocol. The library supports IPv4, IPv4 MPLS-labeled VPN, IPv6 MPLS-labeled VPN and L2VPN EVPN address families.

Example

The following simple code creates a BGP instance with AS number 64512 and Router ID 10.0.0.1. It tries to establish a bgp session with a peer (its IP is 192.168.177.32 and the AS number is 64513). The instance advertizes some prefixes.

import eventlet

# BGPSpeaker needs sockets patched
eventlet.monkey_patch()

# initialize a log handler
# this is not strictly necessary but useful if you get messages like:
#    No handlers could be found for logger "ryu.lib.hub"
import logging
import sys
log = logging.getLogger()
log.addHandler(logging.StreamHandler(sys.stderr))

from ryu.services.protocols.bgp.bgpspeaker import BGPSpeaker

def dump_remote_best_path_change(event):
    print 'the best path changed:', event.remote_as, event.prefix,\
        event.nexthop, event.is_withdraw

def detect_peer_down(remote_ip, remote_as):
    print 'Peer down:', remote_ip, remote_as

if __name__ == "__main__":
    speaker = BGPSpeaker(as_number=64512, router_id='10.0.0.1',
                         best_path_change_handler=dump_remote_best_path_change,
                         peer_down_handler=detect_peer_down)

    speaker.neighbor_add('192.168.177.32', 64513)
# uncomment the below line if the speaker needs to talk with a bmp server.
# speaker.bmp_server_add('192.168.177.2', 11019)
    count = 1
    while True:
        eventlet.sleep(30)
        prefix = '10.20.' + str(count) + '.0/24'
        print "add a new prefix", prefix
        speaker.prefix_add(prefix)
        count += 1
        if count == 4:
            speaker.shutdown()
            break
