[zebra 22833] Classifying traffic based on route.

Hi,
 
I have to classify international traffic from national traffic over my
router, to do this my ISP suggest using BGP, which yeah looks like the
best option, well aside from this one query.
 
Currently I manage a few clients and dynamically rate limit user realm
and IP base selection.
I.e.
Route 10.0.0.0/24 gw 10.0.0.1 dev eth0 realm 10
Route 10.0.1.0/24 gw 10.0.1.1 dev eth1 realm 20
Route 10.0.2.0/24 gw 10.0.2.1 dev eth1 realm 30
(long time since i set it up i think thats bissically how it goes)
I then match realm and anything else (clients ip, clients port(s), etc)
 
If I use Zebra as my BGP will I be able to classify all routes to a
certain provider as certain realms so I can then rate limit/monitor
usage.
 
Lets say I have 4 providers, 1 of which is internation, the rest are
national.
So we need to name the national providers realm 10 or international
realm 20
 
The firewall rules will say:
All traffic to and from 'realm 20' for 'client ip' is international,
mark the packet for bandwidth shaping.
 
 
Thankyou and Regards
