Creating an IBGP Peer Group

Procedure

1. Run system-view

   The system view is displayed.

2. Run bgp as-number

   The BGP view is displayed.

3. Run group group-name internal

   An IBGP peer group is created.

4. Run peer ipv4-address group group-name

   A peer is added to a peer group.

   

   You can repeat step 4 to add multiple peers to the peer group. If the local device has not established a peer relationship with this peer, the device will attempt to establish a peer relationship with this peer, and set the AS number of this peer to the AS number of the peer group.

   When creating an IBGP peer group, you do not need to specify the AS number.

   After configuring a peer group, you can configure BGP functions for the peer group. By default, all peers in a peer group inherit the entire configuration of the peer group. If you configure a peer in a peer group independently. The configuration of this peer will override the configuration that the peer has inherited from the peer group.

5. (Optional) Run peer group-name description description-text

   A description is configured for the peer group.

   You can simplify network management by configuring the descriptions of peers.

6. Run commit

   The configuration is committed.
