Ignoring the ORIGINATOR_ID attribute
By default, BGP drops incoming route updates whose ORIGINATOR_ID attribute is the same as the
local router ID. Some special networks such as firewall networks require BGP to accept such route
updates. To meet the requirement, you must configure BGP to ignore the ORIGINATOR_ID attribute.
To ignore the ORIGINATOR_ID attribute (IPv4 unicast/multicast address family):
