For the router’s identier, Dell EMC Networking OS uses the highest IP address of the Loopback interfaces congured. Because Loopback
interfaces are virtual, they cannot go down, thus preventing changes in the router ID. If you do not congure Loopback interfaces, the
highest IP address of any interface is used as the router ID.
To view the status of BGP neighbors, use the show ip bgp neighbors command in EXEC Privilege mode as shown in the rst
example. For BGP neighbor conguration information, use the show running-config bgp command in EXEC Privilege mode as
shown in the second example.
NOTE: The showconfig command in CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode gives the same information as the show
running-config bgp command.
The following example displays two neighbors: one is an external internal BGP neighbor and the second one is an internal BGP neighbor.
The rst line of the output for each neighbor displays the AS number and states whether the link is an external or internal (shown in bold).
The third line of the show ip bgp neighbors output contains the BGP State. If anything other than ESTABLISHED is listed, the
neighbor is not exchanging information and routes. For more information about using the show ip bgp neighbors command, refer to
the Dell EMC Networking OS Command Line Interface Reference Guide.
The following example shows the show ip bgp neighbors command output.

Enabling four-byte autonomous system numbers
You can enable 4-byte support for conguring autonomous system numbers (ASN).
To enable 4-byte support for the BGP process, use the following command.
NOTE
: When creating BGP confederations, all the routers in the Confederation must be a 4-byte or 2-byte identied routers. You
cannot mix them.
