BGP configuration
NOTE:
The LB module supports configuring BGP only in the web interface.
The three early BGP versions are BGP-1 (RFC 1105), BGP-2 (RFC 1163), and BGP-3 (RFC 1267). The
current version in use is BGP-4 (RFC 4271), which is the defacto Internet exterior gateway protocol used
between ISPs.
Configuration prerequisites
Configure the link layer protocol and IP addresses for interfaces so that neighboring nodes can
communicate with each other.
