With the following policy, all static routes are advertised via BGP to my neighbor:

root@Nitrogen# show policy-options 

policy-statement bgp-export-policy {

    term export-statics {

        from protocol static;

        then accept;

    }

}

root@Nitrogen# show routing-instances myinstance

instance-type virtual-router;

interface ...

routing-options {

    static {

        route 0.0.0.0/0 next-hop ...;                   # I don't want to send this route

        route x.x.x.x next-hop st0.1;

        route x.x.x.x next-hop st0.1;

        route x.x.x.x next-hop st0.1;

        ...

    }

    autonomous-system XXX;

}

protocols {

    bgp {

        group mygroup {

            type external;

            export bgp-export-policy;

            neighbor XXX {

                peer-as XXX;

            }

        }

    }

}

How could I advertise all static routes except the default 0.0.0.0/0 one? Or, if this is easier, how could I advertise all routes that use st0.1 as the next hop?

Thank you in advance for your help.

You need to add a term to your policy statement which explicitly rejects the default route then, and add that before the export-statics term:

policy-statement bgp-export-policy {

    term reject-default {

        from {

            route-filter 0.0.0.0/0 through 0.0.0.0/32;

        then reject;

    }

    term export-statics {

        from protocol static;

        then accept;

    }

}

Another, slightly more complex, but also more versatile way is to tag the routes you want to export with a chosen community, and then write an export policy which accepts only routes with that specific community and rejects all others:

routing-options {

    static {

        route 0.0.0.0/0 next-hop 192.0.2.1;

        route x.x.x.x {

            next-hop st0.1;

            community 64496:1000;

        }

        route x.x.x.x {

            next-hop st0.1;

            community 64496:1000;

        }

        route x.x.x.x {

            next-hop st0.1;

            community 64496:1000;

        }

    }

}



policy-statement bgp-export-policy {

    term export-routes {

        from {

            protocol static;

            community 64496:1000;

        }

        then accept;

    }

    term reject {

        then reject;

    }

}

Having an explicit reject policy at the end of your policy chain is always a good idea, regardless of how you would implement this.
