Use this command to enter BGP for IPv6 mode (CONF-ROUTER_BGPv6_AF).
2 Add a neighbor as a remote AS.
CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode
neighbor {ip-address | peer-group name} remote-as as-number
• peer-group name: 16 characters
• as-number: from 0 to 65535 (2 Byte) or from 1 to 4294967295 (4 Byte) or 0.1 to 65535.65535 (Dotted format)
Formats: IP Address A.B.C.D
You must Configure Peer Groups before assigning it a remote AS.
3 Enable the BGP neighbor.

Examples of the show ip bgp summary Command (2-Byte and 4–Byte AS number)
NOTE: When you change the configuration of a BGP neighbor, always reset it by entering the clear ip bgp command in
EXEC Privilege mode.
To view the BGP configuration, enter show config in CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode. To view the BGP status, use the
show ip bgp summary command in EXEC Privilege mode. The first example shows the summary with a 2-byte AS number
displayed (in bold); the second example shows that the summary with a 4-byte AS number using the show ip bgp summary
command (displays a 4–byte AS number in bold).
