Concept Guide

• Enable the neighbor.
CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode
neighbor ip-address no shutdown
• Specify the number of prexes that can be received from a neighbor.
CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP-AF mode
neighbor {ip-address | ipv6–address | peer-group-name} maximum—prefix maximum [threshold]
[warning-only]as-number
Example of conguring both IPv4 and IPv6 VRF address families
The following are the sample steps performed to congure a VRF, and VRF address families for IPv4 (unicast and multicast) and IPv6.
DellEMC(conf)# ip vrf vrf1
DellEMC(conf-vrf)# ip route-import 200:5
DellEMC(conf-vrf)# exit
DellEMC(conf)# router bgp 100
DellEMC(conf-router_bgp)# address-family ipv4 vrf vrf1
DellEMC(conf-router_bgp_af)# neighbor 50.0.0.2 remote-as 200
DellEMC(conf-router_bgp_af)# neighbor 50.0.0.2 maximum-prefix 10000 warning-only
DellEMC(conf-router_bgp_af)# neighbor 50.0.0.2 no shutdown
DellEMC(conf-router_bgp_af)# exit
DellEMC(conf-router_bgp)# address-family ipv6 unicast vrf vrf1
DellEMC(conf-router_bgpv6_af)# neighbor 50.0.0.2 activate
DellEMC(conf-router_bgpv6_af)# exit
DellEMC(conf-router_bgp)# address-family ipv4 multicast vrf vrf1
DellEMC(conf-router_bgpv6_af)# neighbor 50.0.0.2 activate
DellEMC(conf-router_bgp)# exit
Following is the output of show ip bgp vrf vrf1 summary command for the above conguration.
DellEMC#show ip bgp vrf vrf1 summary
