peer connected-check-ignore

Function

The peer connected-check-ignore command configures a device not to check the hop count when establishing a one-hop EBGP peer relationship using loopback interface addresses.

The undo peer connected-check-ignore command cancels the configuration.

By default, a device checks the hop count when establishing a one-hop EBGP peer relationship using loopback interface addresses.

Format

peer{ group-name | ipv4-address | ipv6-address } connected-check-ignore

undo peer{ group-name | ipv4-address | ipv6-address } connected-check-ignore

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
group-name	Specifies the name of a peer group.	The value is a string of 1 to 47 case-sensitive characters, spaces not supported.
ipv4-address	Specifies the IPv4 address of a peer.	-
ipv6-address	Specifies the IPv6 address of a peer.	-

ipv4-address is valid only in the BGP view and BGP-VPN instance IPv4 address family view.
ipv6-address is valid only in the BGP view and BGP-VPN instance IPv6 address family view.

Views

BGP view, BGP-VPN instance IPv4 address family view, or BGP-VPN instance IPv6 address family view

Default Level

2: Configuration level

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

To allow one-hop EBGP peer relationships to be established using loopback interface addresses, run the peer connected-check-ignore command or the peer ebgp-max-hop command (in which hop-count is greater than or equal to 2).

Prerequisites

Peer relationships have been established using the peer as-number command.

Precautions

If the peer connected-check-ignore command is used on one end of an EBGP connection, it must also be used on the other end.
