10.1.4 BGP Neighbor
To assign IP address or peer group name for BGP Neighboring router within specified AS
number, use the following command.
Command Mode Description
neighbor {NEIGHBOR-IP |
WORD } remote-as <1-65535>
Configures BGP neighboring router and specify AS
number of BGP Neighbor.
NEIGHBOR-IP: neighbor IP address
WORD: peer group name or neighbor tag
1-65535: remote AS Number
no neighbor {NEIGHBOR-IP |
WORD } remote-as <1-65535>
Router
Deletes the configured BGP Neighbor within specified
AS number.
10.1.4.1 Default Route
The hiD 6615 S323 can be configured that particular neighboring BGP routers or peer
group is assigned by default route as 0.0.0.0. Then, neighboring router or member of peer
group is able to receive the information of default route from the designated routers.
The following command allows neighboring BGP routers or Peer Group to transmit
0.0.0.0 as the default route.
To generate the default route to BGP neighbor or peer group, use the following command.
Command Mode Description
neighbor {NEIGHBOR-IP |
WORD } default-originate [route-
map NAME]
Generates the default route to BGP Neighbor.
NEIGHBOR-IP: neighbor IP address
WORD: peer group name or neighbor tag
1-65535: remote AS number
NAME: route map name
no neighbor {NEIGHBOR-IP |
WORD } default-originate [route-
map NAME]
Router
Removes the default route for BGP Neighbor or peer
group.
10.1.4.2 Peer Group
As the number of external BGP group increases, the ability to support a large number of
BGP sessions may become a scaling issue. In principle all members of BGP routers
within a single AS must connect to other neighboring routers. The preferred way to con-
figure a large number of BGP neighbors is to configure a few groups consisting of multi-
ple neighbors per group. Supporting fewer BGP groups generally scales better than sup-
porting a large number of BGP groups. This becomes more evident in the case of dozens
of BGP neighboring groups when compared with a few BGP groups with multiple peers in
each group. If the routers belong to same group, they can be applied by same configura-
tion. This group is called as Peer Group.
After peer relationships have been established, the BGP peers exchange update mes-
sage to advertise network reachability information. You can arrange BGP routers into
groups of peers.
