The above two attributes are both optional non-transitive, so BGP speakers not supporting

multi-protocol ignore the two attributes and do not forward them to its peers.

Address family

MP-BGP uses address families to differentiate network layer protocols. For address family values, see

RFC 1700 (Assigned Numbers). Currently, the system supports multiple MP-BGP extensions,

including VPN extension and IPv6 extension. Different extensions are configured in respective address

family view.

z

For information about the VPN extension application, see MPLS L3VPN Configuration in the

MPLS Configuration Guide.

z

For information about the IPv6 extension application, see IPv6 BGP Configuration in the Layer 3 -

IP Routing Configuration Guide.

z

This chapter gives no detailed commands related to any specific extension application in MP-BGP

address family view.
