BGP Configuration Commands
6-104 Configuring the Border Gateway Protocol
Mode
Router configuration:
XSR(config-router)#
Example
This example sets the peer keep‐alive to 10 seconds and, subsequently, the hold‐time to 30

neighbor update-source
This command specifies the source IP address used when communicating with a BGP neighbor. A
loopback interface is typically used with this command.
Syntax
neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} update-source interface
Syntax of the “no” Form
The no form of this command removes a neighbor’s update source:
no neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} update-source interface
Mode
Router configuration:
XSR(config-router)#
Default
Best outbound interface.
Example
The following example sources BGP TCP connections for the specified neighbor with the IP
address of the loopback interface rather than the best local address:
XSR(config)#router bgp 100
XSR(config-router)#neighbor 192.168.1.1 remote-as 101
XSR(config-router)#neighbor 192.168.1.1 update-source loopback 0
ip-address
Neighbor’s IP address.
peer-group-name
BGP peer group by name. Range: 1 to 64 characters.
interface
Identifies the interface to be used as the source.
