Chapter 11 Configuring Advanced BGP
Configuring Advanced BGP
Use the show bgp neighbor command to see the template applied. See the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series
NX-OS Unicast Routing Command Reference for details on all commands available in the template.
This example shows how to configure a BGP peer template and apply it to a BGP peer:
switch# config t
switch(config)# router bgp 65536
switch(config-router)# template peer BasePeer
switch(config-router-neighbor)# inherit peer-session BaseSession
switch(config-router-neighbor)# address-family ipv4 unicast
switch(config-router-neighbor-af)# inherit peer-policy BasePolicy 1
switch(config-router-neighbor-af)# exit
switch(config-router-neighbor)# exit
switch(config-router)# neighbor 192.168.1.2 remote-as 65536
switch(config-router-neighbor)# inherit peer BasePeer
switch(config-router-neighbor)# copy running-config startup-config
Step 8
timers keepalive hold
Example:
switch(config-router-neighbor)# timers
45 100
(Optional) Adds the BGP timer values to the peer.
These values override the timer values in the
peer-session template, BaseSession.
Step 9
exit
Example:
switch(config-router-neighbor)# exit
switch(config-router)#
Exits BGP peer template configuration mode.
Step 10
neighbor ip-address remote-as as-number
Example:
switch(config-router)# neighbor
192.168.1.2 remote-as 65536
switch(config-router-neighbor)#
Places the router in neighbor configuration mode for
BGP routing and configures the neighbor IP address.
Step 11
inherit peer template-name
Example:
switch(config-router-neighbor)# inherit
peer BasePeer
Inherits the peer template.
Step 12
timers keepalive hold
Example:
switch(config-router-neighbor)# timers
60 120
(Optional) Adds the BGP timer values to this neighbor.
These values override the timer values in the peer
template and the peer-session template.
Step 13
show bgp peer-template template-name
Example:
switch(config-router-neighbor-af)# show
bgp peer-template BasePeer
(Optional) Displays the peer template.
Step 14
copy running-config startup-config
Example:
switch(config-router-neighbor-af)# copy
running-config startup-config
(Optional) Saves this configuration change.
