Enabling BGP
To enable BGP, a local AS number must be specified. After BGP is enabled, the
local router listens to BGP connection requests sent by adjacent routers. To make
the local router send BGP connection requests to adjacent routers, refer to the
configuration of the peer command. When BGP is disabled, all established BGP
connections will be disconnected.
Perform the following configurations in system view.
By default, BGP is not enabled.
Entering Extended Address Family View
To initiate multicast applications with BGP, you must enable BGP and enter the
corresponding extended address family view. Some commands available in BGP
view can also be executed in extended address family view. However, these
commands are only available for the corresponding applications if you configure
them in extended address family view.
