Configuring BGP4+

Syntax: neighbor <ipv6-address> route-map [in | out] <name>
The <ipv6-address> parameter specifies the IPv6 link-local address of the neighbor. A link-local
address has a fixed prefix of FE80::/64. You must specify the <ipv6-address> parameter in
hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.
The in keyword applies the route map to incoming routes. The out keyword applies the route map to
outgoing routes.
The <name> parameter specifies a route map name.
Syntax: route-map <name> deny | permit <sequence-number>
The name parameter specifies a route map name.
The deny keyword denies the distribution of routes that match the route map. The permit keyword
permits the distribution of routes that match the route map.
The <sequence-number> parameter specifies a sequence number for the route map statement.
Syntax: match ipv6 address prefix-list <name>
The match ipv6 address prefix-list command distributes any routes that have a destination IPv6
address permitted by a prefix list.
The <name> parameter specifies an IPv6 prefix list name.
Syntax: set ipv6 next-hop <ipv6-address>
The <ipv6-address> parameter specifies the IPv6 global address of the next-hop switch. You must
specify the <ipv6-address> parameter in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as
documented in RFC 2373.
Configuring a BGP4+ peer group
If a switch has multiple neighbors with similar attributes, you can configure a peer group, then add
neighbors to the group instead of configuring neighbors individually for all parameters as described
in
“Configuring BGP4+ neighbors using global or site-local IPv6 addresses” on page 1222 and
“Adding BGP4+ neighbors using link-local addresses” on page 1222.
NOTE
You can add IPv6 neighbors only to an IPv6 peer group. You cannot add an IPv4 neighbor to an IPv6
peer group and vice versa. IPv6 and IPv6 peer groups must remain separate.
To configure a BGP4+ peer group, you must do the following.
1. Create a peer group.
2. Add a neighbor to the local switch.
3. Assign the IPv6 neighbor to the peer group.
Creating a BGP4+ peer group
To create a peer group named “peer_group1,” enter the following commands:
BigIron RX(config-bgp)# address-family ipv6 unicast
BigIron RX(config-bgp-ipv6u)# neighbor peer_group1 peer-group
Syntax: neighbor <peer-group-name> peer-group
