5.3 Configuring BGP Basic Functions
The section describes BGP basic configuration.
 Note:
z This section does not differentiate between BGP and MP-BGP.
z Since BGP employs TCP, you need to specify IP addresses of peers, which may not
be neighboring routers.
z Using logical links can also establish BGP peer relationships.
z In general, IP addresses of loopback interfaces are used to improve stability of BGP
connections.
