C613-50100-01 REV C Command Reference for x930 Series 1246
AlliedWare Plus™ Operating System - Version 5.4.6-1.x
BGP AND BGP4+ COMMANDS
NEIGHBOR
ACTIVATE
neighbor activate
Overview Use this command to enable the exchange of BGP IPv4 and BGP4+ IPv6 routes with
a neighboring router, and also within either an IPv4 or an IPv6 specific
address-family.
Use the no variant of this command to disable the exchange of information with a
BGP or BGP4+ neighbor, in the Router Configuration or the Address Family
Configuration mode.
Syntax
neighbor <neighborid> activate
no neighbor <neighborid> activate
Mode [BGP] Router Configuration or IPv4 Address Family Configuration
Mode [BGP4+] IPv6 Address Family Configuration
Usage [BGP] Use this command to enable the exchange of information to a neighbor. To
exchange IPv4 or IPv6 prefixes with a BGP or a BGP4+ peer, you must configure this
command for the peer or the peer group. This command only enables the
exchange of information. You can establish peering without this command, but no
prefixes and other information is sent until you apply this command to the
neighbor.
This command triggers the device to start a BGP or BGP4+ peering relationship
with the specified BGP or BGP4+ neighbor and start exchanging routes with that
neighbor.
The command is required for neighbors configured in Address-Family
Configuration mode, but it is not required in Router Configuration mode (that is, it
does not affect the device’s behavior).
Parameter Description
<neighborid> {<ip-address>|<ipv6-addr>|<peer-group>}
<ip-address> Specify the address of an IPv4 BGP neighbor, in
dotted decimal notation A.B.C.D.
<ipv6-addr> Specify the address of an IPv6 BGP4+ neighbor,
entered in hexadecimal in the format X:X::X:X.
<peer-group> Enter the name of an existing peer-group. For
information on how to create peer groups, refer
to the neighbor peer-group (add a neighbor)
command, and neighbor route-map command.
When this parameter is used with this
command, the command applies on all peers in
the specified group.
