peer path-attribute-treat (BGP-IPv6 MVPN address family view)

Function

The peer path-attribute-treat command configures the processing mode of the specified path attribute.

The undo peer path-attribute-treat command cancels the processing mode of the specified path attribute.

By default, the specified path attributes are processed according to the standard protocol.

Format

peer peerIpv4Addr path-attribute-treat attribute-id { id [ to id2 ] } &<1-255> { discard | withdraw | treat-as-unknown }

peer peerIpv6Addr path-attribute-treat attribute-id { id [ to id2 ] } &<1-255> { discard | withdraw | treat-as-unknown }

undo peer peerIpv4Addr path-attribute-treat attribute-id { id [ to id2 ] } &<1-255> [ discard | withdraw | treat-as-unknown ]

undo peer peerIpv6Addr path-attribute-treat attribute-id { id [ to id2 ] } &<1-255> [ discard | withdraw | treat-as-unknown ]

discard

Discards the specified attribute.

-

withdraw

Withdraws routes with specified attributes.

-

treat-as-unknown

The BGP device processes the specified attribute as an unknown attribute. If the specified attribute is optional and transitive, the BGP device accepts this attribute and advertises it to other peers. If the specified attribute is of any other types, the BGP device discards this attribute.

-

peerIpv6Addr

Specifies the address of an IPv6 peer.

The value is a 32-digit hexadecimal number, in the format X:X:X:X:X:X:X:X.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

A BGP Update message contains various path attributes. If the local device receives any Update message in an incorrect format, BGP session flapping may occur. To enhance reliability, you can run this command to perform special processing on the specified BGP path attribute. The processing modes are as follows:

  • discard: discards messages with specified attributes.
  • withdraw: withdraws routes with specified attributes.
  • treat-as-unknown: The device processes the messages with the specified attribute as unknown messages.

Precautions

Running this command may cause route attributes to be discarded or routes to be withdrawn. Therefore, exercise caution when running this command.

This function takes effect immediately for the routes received after the command is run. The command does not take effect immediately for the routes received before the command is run unless the refresh bgp command is run.

Example

# Configure the processing mode of the specified path attribute.
<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] bgp 100
[*HUAWEI-bgp] peer 10.1.1.1 as-number 100
[*HUAWEI-bgp] ipv6-family mvpn
[*HUAWEI-bgp-af-mvpn] peer 10.1.1.1 enable
[*HUAWEI-bgp-af-mvpn] peer 10.1.1.1 path-attribute-treat attribute-id 19 to 21 discard
# Configure the processing mode of the specified path attribute.
<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] bgp 100
[*HUAWEI-bgp] peer 2001:db8:10::1 as-number 100
[*HUAWEI-bgp] ipv6-family mvpn
[*HUAWEI-bgp-af-mvpn] peer 2001:db8:10::1 enable
[*HUAWEI-bgp-af-mvpn] peer 2001:db8:10::1 path-attribute-treat attribute-id 19 to 21 discard
