Configuring a Client PE to Establish an MP-IBGP Peer Relationship with an RR

You can configure a PE to establish an MP-IBGP peer relationship with an RR so that the PE can receive VPNv4 routes reflected by the RR.

Context

A PE or P can function as an RR on the backbone network.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run bgp as-number

    The BGP view is displayed.

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

    The RR is specified as a BGP peer.

  4. Run peer peer-ipv4-address connect-interface loopback interface-number

    The interface used to establish a TCP connection is specified.

    A client PE must use the loopback interface address with a 32-bit mask to establish an MP-IBGP peer relationship with the RR so that routes can recurse to a tunnel.

  5. Run ipv4-family vpnv4

    The BGP-VPNv4 address family view is displayed.

  6. Run peer peer-ipv4-address enable

    The function to exchange VPNv4 routes with the RR is enabled.

  7. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
