Identifying a neighbor interface
To specify Ethernet interface 3/1 as the neighbor interface over which the neighbor and local device will
exchange prefixes, enter the following command:
device(config-bgp-router)# neighbor fe80:4398:ab30:45de::1 update-source ethernet 3/1
Syntax: neighbor ipv6-address update-source ipv6-address | ethernet slot | port | loopback number |
ve number
The ipv6-address parameter specifies the IPv6 link-local address of the neighbor. A link-local address
has a fixed prefix of fe80::/10. You must specify the ipv6-address parameter in hexadecimal using 16-bit
values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.
The ethernet, loopback, and ve parameters specify the neighbor interface over which the neighbor
and local device will exchange prefixes. If you specify an Ethernet interface, also specify the port
number associated with the interface. If you specify a loopback or VE interface, also specify the
loopback or VE number.
Configuring a route map
To configure a route map that filters routes advertised to a neighbor or sets up a global next hop for
packets destined for the neighbor with the IPv6 link-local address fe80:4398:ab30:45de::1, enter
commands such as the following (start at the BGP4+ unicast address family configuration level):
device(config-bgp-ipv6u)# neighbor fe80:4398:ab30:45de::1 route-map out next-hop
device(config-bgp-ipv6u)# exit
device(config)# route-map next-hop permit 10
device(config-route-map)# match ipv6 address prefix-list next-hop-ipv6
device(config-route-map)# set ipv6 next-hop 2001:db8:3764::34
This route map applies to the BGP4+ unicast address family under which the neighbor ipv6-address
route-map command is entered. This route map applies to the outgoing routes on the neighbor with the
IPv6 link-local address fe80:4393:ab30:45de::1. If an outgoing route on the neighbor matches the route
map, the route is distributed through the next hop router with the global IPv6 address
2001:db8:3764::34.
Syntax: neighbor ipv6-address route-map [ in | out ] name
The ipv6-address parameter specifies the IPv6 link-local address of the neighbor. A link-local address
has a fixed prefix of fe80::/10. You must specify the ipv6-address parameter in hexadecimal using 16-bit
values between colons as documented in RFC 2373.
The in keyword applies the route map to incoming routes. The out keyword applies the route map to
outgoing routes.
The name parameter specifies a route map name.
Syntax: route-map name deny | permit sequence-number
The name parameter specifies a route map name.
The deny keyword denies the distribution of routes that match the route map. The permit keyword
permits the distribution of routes that match the route map.
The sequence-number parameter specifies a sequence number for the route map statement.
Syntax: match ipv6 address prefix-list name
The match ipv6 address prefix-list command distributes any routes that have a destination IPv6
address permitted by a prefix list.
The name parameter specifies an IPv6 prefix list name.
