Administrator Guide

Usage Information By default, when you create a neighbor/peer group configuration in the Router BGP context, this enables IPv4/
Unicast AFI/SAFI. When you use activate in the new context, the neighbor/peer group enables for AFI/SAFI.
It is possible to activate or de-activate a peer from the IPv4/IPv6 unicast address family.
NOTE: The no neighbor peer ip-address activate command takes precedence over the no
neighbor peer-group-name activate command.
The following tables list the neighbor activation and its expected results for IPv4 and IPv6 address families:
Table 1. Neighbor activation and update status for peers activated for IPv4 address family
S.No Peer – IPv4 address
family
Peer group Update status for IPv4 prefixes
1. Activate Activate Send Updates
2. Activate No-Activate Send Updates
3. No-Activate Activate Stop Updates
4. No-Activate No-Activate Stop Updates
Table 2. Neighbor activation and update status for peers activated for IPv6 unicast address family
S.No Peer– IPv6 unicast
address family
Peer group Update status for IPv6 prefixes
1. Activate Activate Send Updates
2. Activate No-Activate Send Updates
3. No-Activate Activate Send Updates
4. No-Activate No-Activate Stop Updates
