Step Command

Remarks

6.

(Optional.) Configure route
redistribution.

import-route protocol
[ { process-id | all-processes }
[ med med-value | route-policy

route-policy-name ] * ]

A CE must redistribute its routes
to the PE so the PE can advertise

them to the peer CE.

Configuring IBGP between a PE and a CE

Use IBGP between PE and CE only in a basic MPLS L3VPN network. In networks such as Hub&Spoke,

Extranet, inter-AS VPN, carrier's carrier, nested VPN, and HoVPN, you cannot use IBGP between PE and
CE.

1.

Configure the PE:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Enter BGP view.

bgp as-number N/A

3.

Enter BGP-VPN instance
view.

ip vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name

Configuration commands in BGP-VPN
instance view are the same as those in
BGP view. For details, see Layer 3—IP

Routing Configuration Guide.

4.

Configure the CE as the
VPN IBGP peer.

peer { group-name |
ip-address
} as-number

as-number

By default, no BGP peer is created.

5.

Create and enter BGP VPN

IPv4 unicast family view.

address-family ipv4
[ unicast ]

N/A

6.

Enable IPv4 unicast route
exchange with the specified

peer.

peer { group-name |
ip-address
} enable

By default, BGP does not exchange
IPv4 unicast routes with any peer.

7.

Configure the CE as a client
of the RR.

peer { group-name |

ip-address } reflect-client

By default, no RR or RR client is
configured, and the PE does not

advertise routes learned from the
IBGP peer CE to other IBGP peers,

including VPNv4 IBGP peers. The PE

advertises routes learned from the CE
to other IBGP peers only when you

configure the IBGP peer CE as a client

of the RR.
Configuring an RR does not change

the next hop of a route. To change the
next hop of a route, configure an

inbound policy on the receiving side.

8.

(Optional.) Enable route

reflection between clients.

reflect between-clients

Route reflection between clients is
enabled by default.

9.

(Optional.) Configure the

cluster ID for the RR.

reflector cluster-id
{ cluster-id | ip-address }

By default, the RR uses its own router
ID as the cluster ID.
If multiple RRs exist in a cluster, use

this command to configure the same
cluster ID for all RRs in the cluster to

avoid routing loops.
