Configuring BGP4+

Brocade(config-bgp-ipv6u)# neighbor 2001:db8:89::23 peer-group peer_group1

Syntax: neighbor ipv6-address peer-group peer-group-name

The ipv6-address parameter specifies the IPv6 address of the neighbor. You must specify the
ipv6-address parameter in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC
2373.

The peer-group peer-group-name parameter indicates the name of the already created peer group.

To delete the mapping of the neighbor IPv6 address to the peer group, enter the no form of this
command.

Activating the IPv6 neighbor /peer group

By default, a peer group is activated only in “address-family ipv4 unicast” mode. To activate the
neighbor/peer group in “address-family ipv6-unicast” mode, use the activate command:

Brocade(config-bgp-ipv6u)# neighbor 2001:db8:89::23 activate

Brocade(config-bgp-ipv6u)# neighbor peer_group1 activate

Syntax: neighbor ipv6-address| peer-group-name activate

The peer-group-name parameter indicates the name of the already created peer group.

The following peer-group attributes/route policies are inherited by a group member when the
peer-group is active in an ipv6 address-family:

activate (address family)

prefix-list

route-map

distribute-list

filter-list

unsuppress-map

originate-default

route-reflect-client

weight

max-prefix

send-community

send-extended-community

To deactivate the neighbor/peer group, enter the no form of this command.

Advertising the default BGP4+ route

By default, the BGP4+ device does not originate and advertise a default BGP4+ route. A default
route is the IPv6 address :: and the route prefix 0; that is, ::/0.
