NOTE
If the Layer 3 Switch has multiple neighbors with similar attributes, you can simplify configuration by
configuring a peer group, then adding individual neighbors to it. The configuration steps are similar,
except you specify a peer group name instead of a neighbor IP address when configuring the
neighbor parameters, then add individual neighbors to the peer group. Refer to “Adding a BGP4 peer
group” on page 1000.
NOTE
The Layer 3 Switch attempts to establish a BGP4 session with a neighbor as soon as you enter a
command specifying the neighbor IP address. If you want to completely configure the neighbor
parameters before the Layer 3 Switch establishes a session with the neighbor, you can
administratively shut down the neighbor. Refer to “Administratively shutting down a session with a
BGP4 neighbor” on page 1003.
To add a BGP4 neighbor with IP address 209.157.22.26, enter the following command.
PowerConnect(config-bgp-router)#neighbor 209.157.22.26
The neighbor <ip-addr> must be a valid IP address.
The neighbor command has some additional parameters, as shown in the following syntax:
Syntax: [no] neighbor <ip-addr> | <peer-group-name>
[advertisement-interval <num>]
[capability orf prefixlist [send | receive]]
[default-originate [route-map <map-name>]]
[description <string>]
[distribute-list in | out <num,num,...> | <ACL-num> in | out]
[ebgp-multihop [<num>]]
[filter-list in | out <num,num,...> | <ACL-num> in | out | weight]
[maximum-prefix <num> [<threshold>] [teardown]]
[next-hop-self]
[nlri multicast | unicast | multicast unicast]
[password
[0 | 1] <string>]
[prefix-list <string> in | out]
[remote-as <as-number>]
[remove-private-as]
[route-map in | out <map-name>]
[route-reflector-client]
[send-community]
[soft-reconfiguration inbound]
[shutdown]
[timers keep-alive <num> hold-time <num>]
[unsuppress-map <map-name>]
[update-source <ip-addr> | ethernet <port> | loopback <num> | ve <num>]
[weight <num>]
The <ip-addr> | <peer-group-name> parameter indicates whether you are configuring an individual
neighbor or a peer group. If you specify a neighbor IP address, you are configuring that individual
neighbor. If you specify a peer group name, you are configuring a peer group. Refer to “Adding a
BGP4 peer group” on page 1000.
advertisement-interval <num> specifies the minimum delay (in seconds) between messages to the
specified neighbor. The default is 30 for EBGP neighbors (neighbors in other autonomous systems).
The default is 5 for IBGP neighbors (neighbors in the same AS). The range is 0 through 600.
