BGP4+ neighbors
BGP4+ neighbors can be
congured using link-local addresses or global addresses.
BGP4+ neighbors can be created using link-local addresses for peers in the same link. For link-local peers, the neighbor interface over
which the neighbor and local device exchange prexes is specied through the neighbor update-source command, and a route map is
congured to set up a global next hop for packets destined for the neighbor.
To congure BGP4+ neighbors that use link-local addresses, you must do the following:
• Add the IPv6 address of a neighbor in a remote autonomous system (AS) to the BGP4+ neighbor table of the local device.
• Identify the neighbor interface over which the neighbor and local device will exchange prexes using the neighbor update-
source command.
•
Congure a route map to set up a global next hop for packets destined for the neighbor.
The neighbor should be activated in the IPv6 address family conguration mode using the neighbor activate command.
BGP4+ neighbors can also be congured using a global address. The global IPv6 address of a neighbor in a remote AS must be added,
and the neighbor should be activated in the IPv6 address family conguration mode using the neighbor activate command.
BGP4+ peer groups
Neighbors having the same attributes and parameters can be grouped together by means of the peer-group command.
You must rst create a peer group, after which you can associate neighbor IPv6 addresses with the peer group. All of the attributes that
are allowed on a neighbor are allowed on a peer group as well.
BGP4+ peers and peer groups are activated in the IPv6 address family conguration mode to establish the BGP4+ peering sessions.
An attribute value congured explicitly for a neighbor takes precedence over the attribute value congured on the peer group. In the case
where neither the peer group nor the individual neighbor has the attribute congured, the default value for the attribute is used.
NOTE
BGP4 neighbors are established and the prexes are advertised using the neighbor IP address remote-as command in router
BGP mode. However, when establishing BGP4+ peer sessions and exchanging IPv6 prexes, neighbors must also be activated
using the neighbor IPv6 address activate command in IPv6 address family conguration mode.
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. IPv4 and IPv6 peer groups must remain separate.
