Command Syntax
(no) neighbor NEIGHBORID maximum-prefix MAXIMUM
NEIGHBORID = A.B.C.D|X:X::X:X|TAG
A.B.C.D Specifies the address of the BGP neighbor in IPv4 format.
X:X::X:X Specifies the address of the BGP neighbor in IPv6 format.
TAG Name of an existing peer-group. For information on how to create peer groups, refer to the
neighbor peer-group and neighbor remote-as commands. When this parameter is used with a command,
the command applies on all peers in the specified group.
MAXIMUM = MAXPREFIX (THRESHOLD) (warning-only)
MAXPREFIX <1-4294967295> Specifies the maximum number of prefixes permitted.
THRESHOLD <1-100> Specifies the threshold value, 1 to 100 percent.
warning-only Only gives a warning message when the limit is exceeded.
Command Mode
Router mode and Address Family mode
Usage
The neighbor maximum-prefix command allows the configuration of a specified number of prefixes that a BGP
router is allowed to receive from a neighbor. When the warning-only option is not used, if any extra prefixes
are received, the router ends the peering. A terminated peer, stays down until the clear ip bgp command is
used.

Switch(config)# router bgp 10
