.SH NAME
@UTILITY@
\(em legacy wrapper script for backwards compatibility with Isolario
.IR bgpscanner
CLI
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
@UTILITY@ \fB[\fIOPTIONS\fB]\fR... \fB[\fIFILES\fB]\fR...
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
The legacy
.IR @UTILITY@
wrapper script is a drop in wrapper script to remap most invocations of the
Isolario
.IR bgpscanner
CLI to any relevant
.IR \[*m]bgpsuite
utility.
The legacy
.IR @UTILITY@
wrapper may be used to ease transition phase to tools offered by the
.IR "\[*m]bgpsuite" .
A pretend mode is also available, to print the command that would need to
be executed to perform the same operations as the provided
.IR bgpscanner
CLI invocation.
This is especially useful to users familiar with the old
.IR bgpscanner
CLI to learn the new syntax.
See the
.IR "PRETEND MODE"
section below for details.
Anyone unfamiliar with Isolario
.IR bgpscanner
and wishing to take advantage of the
.IR "\[*m]bgpsuite"
tools is probably reading the wrong man page.
See
.IR bgpgrep (1)
and
.IR peerindex (1)
for equivalent and more advanced functionality.
For reference, Isolario
.IR bgpscanner
supports a more rudimentary filtering model compared to
.IR bgpgrep (1).
For every MRT dump in
.IR FILES
Isolario
.IR bgpscanner
reconstructs the original BGP message and applies the filtering rules specified by
.IR OPTIONS
(if any). Failing to meet such rules causes the BGP message to be dropped
from output.
The filtering process follows the sequence:
.IP
.PD 0
.IP 1 5
Filtering by peer (aka feeder in Isolario jargon), which may discard a message based on the announcing peer.
.IP 2 5
Filtering by attributes, which may discard a message based on the presence of specific attributes of interest.
.IP 3 5
Filtering by AS_PATH, which may discard a message based on the routes it contains.
.IP 4 5
Filtering by prefixes, which may discard a message based on the prefixes available in its NLRI and WITHDRAWN fields.
.PD
.PP
Multiple criteria may be occur for each phase, resulting in implicitly
.IR OR ing
together multiple conditions.
.SH OPTIONS
The following backwards compatibility options are supported:
.IP "\fB\-a \fI<peer AS>\fP" 10
Print only entries coming from the given peer ASN.
.IP "\fB\-A \fI<file>\fP" 10
Print only entries coming from any peer ASN listed in a template file, see
.IR "FILTER TEMPLATE FILES"
section below for details.
.IP "\fB\-d\fP" 10
Dump BGP filter bytecode to stderr (debug option).
.IP "\fB\-e \fI<prefix>\fP" 10
Print only entries containing the exact prefix of interest.
.IP "\fB\-E \fI<file>\fP" 10
Print only entries containing exactly any prefix of interest listed in file,
see
.IR "FILTER TEMPLATE FILES"
section below for details.
.IP "\fB\-f\fP" 10
Print every peer IP address inside RIBs provided as input files.
.IP "\fB\-i \fI<peer IP>\fP" 10
Print only entries coming from a given peer IP address.
.IP "\fB\-I \fI<file>\fP" 10
(The uppercase letter i.) Print only entries coming from any peer IP address listed in file,
see
.IR "FILTER TEMPLATE FILES"
section below for details.
.IP "\fB\-l\fP" 10
(The letter ell.) Print only entries with loops in their AS_PATH.
.IP "\fB\-L\fP" 10
Opposite of
.IR \-l ,
print only entries without loops in their AS_PATH.
.IP "\fB\-o \fI<file>\fP" 10
Redirect output to file (defaults to standard output).
If option occurs multiple times, last one prevails.
.IP "\fB\-m \fI<communities string>\fP" 10
Print only entries whose COMMUNITY attribute contains the given communities (in any order).
Communities must be specified in canonical form and space separated, for example: `1234:567 8910:1112'.
Well\-known communities can also be specified according to IANA (see
.IR STANDARDS ),
for example NO_EXPORT.
.IP "\fB\-M \fI<communities string>\fP" 10
Opposite of
.IR \-m ,
only prints entries whose COMMUNITY attribute does
.B not
contain the given communities (in any order).
.IP "\fB\-p \fI<path expression>\fP" 10
Print only entries whose AS_PATH matches the provided expression.
This option accepts expressions in a syntax resembling a heavily simplified
form of POSIX basic regular expressions.
See section
.IR "AS PATH MATCH EXPRESSIONS"
for details.
.IP "\fB\-P \fI<path expression>\fP" 10
Opposite of
.IR \-p ,
only prints entries whose AS_PATH does
.B not
match the provided expression.
.IP "\fB\-r \fI<prefix>\fP" 10
Print only entries containing subnets or supernets of the given prefix (including the prefix itself).
.IP "\fB\-R \fI<file>\fP" 10
Print only entries containing subnets or supernets of any prefix listed in file (including the prefix itself),
see section
.IR "FILTER TEMPLATE FILES"
for details.
.IP "\fB\-s \fI<subnet>\fP" 10
Print only entries containing subnets of the given prefix.
.IP "\fB\-S \fI<file>\fP" 10
Print only entries containing subnets of any prefix listed in file,
see section
.IR "FILTER TEMPLATE FILES"
for details.
.IP "\fB\-t \fI<attribute code>\fP" 10
Print only entries containing the given interesting attribute.
.IP "\fB\-u \fI<prefix>\fP" 10
Print only entries containing supernets of the given prefix
(including the prefix itself).
.IP "\fB\-U \fI<file>\fP" 10
Print only entries containing supernets of any prefix listed in file
(including the prefix itself),
see section
.IR "FILTER TEMPLATE FILES"
for details.
.SH OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
.TP
.B FILE
A pathname of an input file. If no file operands are specified, the standard input is used.
If a file is `-',
.IR @UTILITY@
shall read from the standard input at that point in the sequence.
.B bgpscanner
does not close and reopen standard input when it is referenced in this way, but accepts multiple occurrences of `-' as a file operand.
See the
.IR "INPUT FILES"
section for details on the supported file formats.
.SH "AS PATH MATCH EXPRESSIONS"
AS_PATH match expressions (accepted by
.IR \-p
and
.IR \-P
options) use a simplified format based on typical conventions estabilished by
POSIX regular expressions. The most basic example is the position idependent AS_PATH matching,
an expression such as:
.nf
\&
.in +2m
@UTILITY@\ \-p\ "1\ 2"
.in
\&
.fi
matches any message whose AS_PATH crosses link `AS1 AS2'. The `AS1 AS2' link may appear anywhere in
AS_PATH. The expression can be arbitrarily complex, for example:
.nf
\&
.in +2m
@UTILITY@\ \-p\ "1\ 2\ 3\ 4\ 5\ 6\ 7\ 8"
.in
\&
.fi
matches any message with the corresponding ASN subsequence appearing anywhere in its AS_PATH.
A `?' (question mark) may be placed anywhere in the expression to signal the fact that any ASN may
appear in that position, for example:
.nf
\&
.in +2m
@UTILITY@\ \-p\ "1\ ?\ 3"
.in
\&
.fi
matches any message whose AS_PATH contains a subsequence of length 3, whose first ASN is AS1 and the last one is AS3.
.P
Matching expressions may be constrained to operate to the beginning or the end of the AS PATH.
By prepending `^' (caret) to the expression, the following ASN are required to appear at the beginning of the path,
for example:
.nf
\&
.in +2m
@UTILITY@\ \-p\ "^1\ 2"
.in
\&
.fi
matches any message whose AS_PATH starts with the link `AS1 AS2'.
In a similar fashion, the expression may be forced to match at the end of the path by appending a `$' (dollar sign) at the end.
.nf
\&
.in +2m
@UTILITY@\ \-p\ "1\ 2$"
.in
\&
.fi
matches any message whose AS_PATH ends with the link `AS1 AS2'.
A `?' may be used to match any ASN in the corresponding position, for example:
.nf
\&
.in +2m
@UTILITY@\ \-p\ "1\ ?$"
.in
\&
.fi
matches any message whose AS_PATH is ending with the second to last ASN being AS1.
The `^' and `$' symbols may be used to create exact matches, such as:
.nf
\&
.in +2m
@UTILITY@\ \-p\ "^1\ 2\ 3\ 4$"
.in
\&
.fi
matches any message whose AS PATH is exactly `AS1 AS2 AS3 AS4'.
.nf
\&
.in +2m
@UTILITY@\ \-p\ "^1\ 2\ ?\ 4$"
.in
\&
.fi
matches any message whose AS_PATH starts with `AS1 AS2' and ends with AS4, but may have any ASN
in the second to last position.
A `*' (star) may be used to match zero or more ASN in the position.
Note that if the intended usage is to match
.B one
or more ASN, then a `?' symbol
should be used before the `*'. For example:
.nf
\&
.in +2m
@UTILITY@\ \-p\ "^1\ 2\ *\ 4$"
.in
\&
.fi
matches any message whose AS PATH starts with `AS1 AS2', then contains
.B zero
or more ASN and ends with AS4.
.nf
\&
.in +2m
@UTILITY@\ \-p\ "^1\ 2\ ?\ *\ 4$"
.in
\&
.fi
matches any message whose AS_PATH starts with `AS1 AS2', then contains
.B one
or more ASN and terminates with AS4.
The metacharacters explained above may be mixed to create arbitrarily complex expressions.
.P
As a backwards compatibility note, please note that Isolario
.IR bgpscanner
AS_PATH expression syntax differs from
.IR bgpgrep (1)'s
in that a `?' character signifies "any ASN" rather than "match zero or one time"
(see section
.IR "AS_PATH REGULAR EXPRESSIONS"
of
.IR bgpgrep (1)
documentation for details). There is no equivalent to
.IR bgpgrep (1)'s
`?' in Isolario
.IR bgpscanner
AS_PATH matching expressions.
.SH FILTER TEMPLATE FILES
A number of options offer variants reading their arguments from a template file
(for example the
.IR \-e
option allows an alternate
.IR \-E
variant to read each prefix directly from file). This provides means to create
filter templates that may be further refined by additional inline options.
Writing a template file may eliminate the burden of repeatedly typing prefixes that are known
to be always relevant across multiple executions, leaving only prefixes that may genuinely
change to be specified, for example:
.nf
\&
.in +2m
@UTILITY@\ \-E\ template.txt\ \-e\ "192.65.121.0/24"
.in
\&
.fi
Template file is expected to contain a space separated list of tokens in the same format as
the ones expected by the non-template variant of the option. Note that newlines are considered
spaces.
Comments may be freely inserted in the file by prepending them with the `#' (hash) character, anything following
`#' is ignored up to the next newline.
Tokens containing spaces may be enclosed in `"' (quotes) to preserve them.
Template files support the usual C-style character escape sequences.
.P
As an implementation note, the
.IR @UTILITY@
wrapper translates every historical Isolario
.IR bgpscanner
template file to an equivalent
.IR bgpgrep (1)
template inside a temporary file, that is later feed to
.IR bgpgrep (1),
an interested user may inspect the resulting file to learn about the differences
in syntax.
.P
Also note that Isolario
.IR bgpscanner
used the `#' character to mark comments, while
.IR bgpgrep (1)
uses C and C++ style comments.
.SH "LINE ORIENTED OUTPUT"
The
.IR @UTILITY@
wrapper output is identical to the output produced by
.IR bgpgrep (1)
and
.IR peerindex (1),
depending on the
.IR OPTIONS
specified.
See
.IR bgpgrep (1)
and
.IR peerindex (1)
documentation for details.
.SH "PRETEND MODE"
The
.IR @UTILITY@
wrapper may operate in pretend mode, whenever the
.B PRETEND
environment variable is set and equal to any of the values
documented in the
.IR "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES"
section.
In pretend mode, the
.IR @UTILITY@
wrapper will not execute any command, instead it will print the command
that would be executed. This may serve as a debug tool, or a learning tool
to display how to perform a known Isolario
.IR bgpscanner
task using
.IR \[*m]bgpsuite
native tools.
.SH "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES"
The following environment variables affect the execution of the
