Configuring a BGP peer
To configure a BGP neighbor or peer, you must provide the IP address and the AS number of each neighbor since BGP does
not discover the neighbor or peer. Neighbors that are present with the same AS communicate using IBGP while the neighbors
that are present in different AS communicate using EBGP. To allow the neighbor to establish a BGP session, you have to enable
the neighbor by providing neighbor no shutdown command. To configure BGP between two peers, use the following
commands.
Following are the steps to configure a BGP peer. The following example configuration demonstrates how the configure a
neighbor and IPv4 multicast address family. The default is IPv4 unicast address family.
Enter the router configuration mode and the AS number.
