Enabling BGP Peers to Exchange Route Information

BGP peers need to be enabled to exchange route information in the L2VPN-AD address family view.

Context

BGP AD VPLS shares a TCP connection with BGP. Most BGP AD VPLS configurations are the same as BGP configurations. Unlike BGP, BGP AD VPLS requires the exchange of route information between BGP peers. BGP peers need to be enabled to exchange route information in the L2VPN-AD address family view.

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

    A BGP peer is configured.

    ipv4-address is the remote LSR ID.

  4. Run l2vpn-ad-family

    The L2VPN-AD address family view is displayed.

  5. (Optional) Run vpn-orf enable

    The ORF is enabled.

  6. Run peer ipv4-address enable

    A peer is specified, and the function to exchange route information with the specified peer is enabled.

    After you specify a peer in the BGP-L2VPN-AD address family view, the BGP AD signaling capability is enabled by default.

    ipv4-address in this command is the same as ipv4-address specified in the peer command in the BGP view, which is the remote LSR ID.

  7. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
