494
Syntax
peer { ipv6-group-name | ipv6-address } connect-interface interface-type interface-number
undo peer { ipv6-group-name | ipv6-address } connect-interface
Default
BGP uses the outbound interface of the best route to the IPv6 BGP peer/peer group as the source
interface for establishing a TCP connection.

Default command level
2: System level
Parameters
ipv6-group-name: Name of a peer group, a string of 1 to 47 characters.
ipv6-address: IPv6 address of a peer.
interface-type interface-number: Specifies an interface by its type and number.
Usage guidelines
To enhance stability of IPv6 BGP connections, HP recommends using a loopback interface as the source
interface for establishing a TCP connection.
To establish multiple BGP connections to a BGP router, specify on the local router the respective source
interfaces for establishing TCP connections to the peers on the peering BGP router. If you do not, the local
BGP router may fail to establish TCP connections to the peers when using the outbound interfaces of the
best routes as the source interfaces.
Examples
# Specify loopback 0 as the source interface for routing updates to peer 1:2::3:4.

peer default-route-advertise
Use peer default-route-advertise to advertise a default route to a peer/peer group.
Use undo peer default-route-advertise to disable advertising a default route.
Syntax
peer { group-name | ipv4-address | ipv6-address } default-route-advertise [ route-policy
