Configuring BGP4 neighbors

27

NOTE

The advertisement-interval parameter is not supported in BigIron RX even though the CLI command
is allowed at the BGP4 configuration level.

capability orf prefixlist [send | receive] configures cooperative router filtering. The send | receive
parameter specifies the support you are enabling:

send – The device sends the IP prefix lists as Outbound Route Filters (ORFs) to the neighbor.

receive – The device accepts filters as Outbound Route Filters (ORFs) from the neighbor.

If you do not specify the capability, both capabilities are enabled. The prefixlist parameter specifies
the type of filter you want to send to the neighbor.

For more information, refer to

“Configuring cooperative BGP4 route filtering”

on page 884.

NOTE

The current release supports cooperative filtering only for filters configured using IP prefix lists.

default-originate [route-map <map-name>] configures the device to send the default route 0.0.0.0
to the neighbor. If you use the route-map <map-name> parameter, the route map injects the
default route conditionally, based on the match conditions in the route map.

description <string> specifies a name for the neighbor. You can enter an alphanumeric text string
up to 80 characters long.

distribute-list in | out <num,num,...> specifies a distribute list to be applied to updates to or from
the specified neighbor. The in | out keyword specifies whether the list is applied on updates
received from the neighbor or sent to the neighbor. The <num,num,...> parameter specifies the list
of address-list filters. The router applies the filters in the order in which you list them and stops
applying the filters in the distribute list when a match is found.

Alternatively, you can specify distribute-list <acl-num> in | out to use an IP ACL instead of a
distribute list. In this case, <acl-num> is an IP ACL.

NOTE

By default, if a route does not match any of the filters, the device denies the route. To change the
default behavior, configure the last filter as “permit any any”.

NOTE

The address filter must already be configured. Refer to

“Filtering specific IP addresses”

on

page 827.

ebgp-multihop [<num>] specifies that the neighbor is more than one hop away and that the
session type with the neighbor is thus EBGP-multihop. This option is disabled by default. The
<num> parameter specifies the TTL you are adding for the neighbor. You can specify a number
from 0 – 255. The default is 0. If you leave the EBGP TTL value set to 0, the software uses the IP
TTL value.

filter-list in | out <num,num,...> specifies an AS-path filter list or a list of AS-path ACLs. The in | out
keyword specifies whether the list is applied on updates received from the neighbor or sent to the
neighbor. If you specify in or out, the <num,num,...> parameter specifies the list of AS-path filters.
The router applies the filters in the order in which you list them and stops applying the filters in the
AS-path filter list when a match is found. The weight <num> parameter specifies a weight that the
device applies to routes received from the neighbor that match the AS-path filter or ACL. You can
specify a number from 0 – 65535.
