NOTE:

To make sure an IBGP peer can find the correct next hop, you can configure routes advertised to the IPv6
IBGP peer/peer group to use the local router as the next hop. If BGP load balancing is configured, the
local router specifies itself as the next hop of routes sent to an IPv6 IBGP peer/peer group regardless of

whether the peer next-hop-local command is configured.

In a “third party next hop” network where the two IPv6 EBGP peers reside in a common broadcast
subnet, the router does not change the next hop for routes sent to the IPv6 EBGP peer/peer group by
default, unless the peer next-hop-local command is configured.
