activate
Enables the neighbor or peer group to be the current address-family identier (AFI).
Syntax
activate
Parameters None
Default Not congured
Command Mode ROUTER-BGP-NEIGHBOR-AF
Usage Information This command exchanges IPv4 or IPv6 address family information with an IPv4 or IPv6 neighbor. IPv4 unicast
Address family is enabled by default. To activate IPv6 address family for IPv6 neighbor, use the activate
command. To de-activate IPv4 address family for IPv6 neighbor, use the no activate command.
Example
OS10(conf-router-neighbor)# address-family ipv4 unicast
OS10(conf-router-bgp-neighbor-af)# activate
Supported Releases 10.2.0E or later
add-path
Allows the system to advertise multiple paths for the same destination without replacing previous paths with new ones.
Syntax
add-path {both path count | receive | send path count}
Parameters
• both path count — Enter the number of paths to advertise to the peer, from 2 to 64.
• receive — Receive multiple paths from the peer.
• send path count — Enter the number of multiple paths to send multiple to the peer, from 2 to 64.
Default Not congured
Command Mode ROUTER-BGP-NEIGHBOR-AF
Usage Information Advertising multiple paths to peers for the same address prex without replacing the existing path with a new one
reduces convergence times. The no version of this command disables the multiple path advertisements for the
same destination.
Example (IPv4)
OS10(conf-router-bgp-af)# add-path both 64
Example (IPv6)
OS10(conf-router-bgpv6-af)# add-path both 64
Example (Receive)
OS10(conf-router-bgpv6-af)# add-path receive
Supported Releases 10.2.0E or later
address-family
Enters Global Address Family Conguration mode for the IP address family.
Syntax
address-family {[ipv4 | ipv6] unicast}
Parameters
• ipv4 unicast — Enter an IPv4 unicast address family.
