Step Command Remarks
2. Enter BGP view or BGP-VPN
instance view.
• Enter BGP view:
bgp as-number
• Enter BGP-VPN instance
view:
a. bgp as-number
b. ip vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name
N/A
3. Configure the interval for
sending updates for the
same route to a peer or peer
group.
peer
{ group-name | ipv6-address
[ prefix-length ] }
route-update-interval
interval
By default, the interval is 15
seconds for an IBGP peer and 30
seconds for an EBGP peer.
Enabling BGP to establish an EBGP session over multiple
hops
IMPORTANT:
When GTSM is configured, the local device can establish an EBGP session with the peer after both
devices pass GTSM check, regardless of whether the maximum number of hops is reached.
To establish an EBGP connection, two routers must have a direct physical link. If no direct link is
available, you must use the peer ebgp-max-hop command to enable BGP to establish an EBGP
session over multiple hops and specify the maximum hops.
If directly connected EBGP peers use loopback interfaces to establish a BGP session, you do not
need to configure the peer ebgp-max-hop command.
To enable BGP to establish an indirect EBGP session (IPv4):
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view.

2. Enter BGP view or BGP-VPN
instance view.
• Enter BGP view:
bgp as-number
• Enter BGP-VPN instance
view:
a. bgp as-number
b. ip vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name
N/A
3. Enable BGP to establish an
EBGP session to an
indirectly-connected peer or
peer group and specify the
maximum hop count.
peer
{ group-name | ip-address
[ mask-length ] }
ebgp-max-hop
[ hop-count ]
By default, BGP cannot establish
an EBGP session to an
indirectly-connected peer or peer
group.
To enable BGP to establish an indirect EBGP session (IPv6):
