Remarks
Configuring basic BGP:
• (Required.) Enabling BGP
• (Required.) Perform one of the following tasks:
 Configuring a BGP peer
 Configuring dynamic BGP peers
 Configuring a BGP peer group
• (Optional.) Specifying the source address of TCP connections
As a best practice,
configure BGP peer
groups on large scale
BGP networks for easy
configuration and
maintenance.
Perform at least one of the following tasks to generate BGP routes:
• Injecting a local network
• Redistributing IGP routes
N/A
(Optional.) Controlling route distribution and reception:
• Configuring BGP route summarization
• Advertising optimal routes in the IP routing table
• Advertising a default route to a peer or peer group
• Limiting routes received from a peer or peer group
• Configuring BGP route filtering policies
• Configuring a startup policy for BGP route updates
• Configuring BGP route dampening
BGP cannot advertise
optimal routes in the IP
routing table for IPv6
multicast address
family.
(Optional.) Controlling BGP path selection:
• Setting a preferred value for routes received
• Configuring preferences for BGP routes
• Configuring the default local preference
• Configuring the MED attribute
• Configuring the NEXT_HOP attribute
• Configuring the AS_PATH attribute
• Configuring the SoO attribute
N/A
(Optional.) Tuning and optimizing BGP networks:
• Configuring the keepalive interval and hold time
• Configuring the interval for sending updates for the same route
• Enabling BGP to establish an EBGP session over multiple hops
• Enabling immediate re-establishment of direct EBGP connections upon link
failure
• Enabling BGP ORF capabilities
• Enabling 4-byte AS number suppression
