Configure IP routing and forwarding BGP parameters

BGP parameters
The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing protocol is supported by TransPort routers. This page
contains the configuration parameters controlling the behavior of BGP. Most of the configuration is
controlled by a configuration file (raw text) named bgp.cnf. This file would normally be created in a
text editor on a computer and loaded onto the router. The router contains a simple editor for
modifying the bgp.cnf file. The configuration parameters described here mainly define what action
is to be taken when errors occur, and specify the configuration file to use.
Enable BGP
When enabled, enables BGP routing.
BGP Configuration Filename
The configuration file to use is selected from this drop-down list. The default filename is
bgp.cnf. An error message will be displayed if the specified file cannot be found.
Load Config file
Click this button to load the file specified from the drop-down list. The contents of the file will be
visible in the edit window which appears below the button.
Save Config File
Saves the bgp.cnf file back to the filing system. Use if you have edited the file.
Restart BGP after configuration file is saved
When enabled, the router restarts routing using BGP after the file has been saved using the
above Save button.
Restart BGP if a fatal error occurs
When enabled, the router restarts routing using BGP if a fatal error occurs.
