Establishing a 6PE Peer Relationship Between PEs

Procedure

1. Run system-view

   The system view is displayed.

2. Run bgp as-number

   The BGP view is displayed.

3. Run peer ipv4-address as-number as-number

   The IP address of the peer and the number of the AS where the peer resides are specified.
