When running SDN-IP, each address used by the SDN network to peer with an external router needs to be configured in the addresses.json file.

ONOS-1.1 note: Multiple IP addresses (including IPv6) can be configured per interface:

{
    "addresses" : [
        {
            ...
            "ips" : ["10.0.1.101/24", "2001:DB8::1/64"],
            ...
        },
        ...
    ]
}

BGP configuration

The sdnip.json file contains details of the BGP peering sessions, as well as the connectivity between internal BGP speakers and external BGP peers.

In addition to the network configuration described above, there is a separate configuration file for the SDN-IP software component. Currently there is one configurable parameter, the port that SDN-IP listens for incoming BGP connections on. If you wish to configure this parameter, place this file at KARAF_ROOT/etc/org.onosproject.sdnip.SdnIp.cfg. Note that by default ONOS listens on TCP port number 2000 for incoming BGP connections, which is not the default BGP port number 179.

bgpPort=2000

BGP speakers

Each BGP speaker potentially has multiple peering sessions to different external networks. It is possible for these peering sessions to be on different IP subnets, which means each BGP speaker can potentially have multiple IP addresses it is peering on. These addresses must be configured in the sdnip.json file, but they also need to be configured on the interfaces of the BGP speaker, so that it can receive packets sent to it on those addresses.
