network (bgp-router-config)

Configures the local network IP addresses and masks. These network addresses are broadcasted to neighboring BGP peers. You can configure a single IP address or a range of IP addresses in the A.B.C.D/M notation.

Supported in the following platforms:

Syntax

network <IP/M> {backdoor|pathlimit|route-map}
network <IP/M> {backdoor pathlimit <1-255>}
network <IP/M> {pathlimit <1-255>}
network <IP/M> {route-map <ROUTE-MAP-NAME>}

Parameters

network <IP/M> {backdoor pathlimit <1-255>|pathlimit <1-255>|route-map <ROUTE-MAP-NAME>}
network <IP/M> Configures the local network‘s address in the A.B.C.D/M format
  • <IP/M> – Specify the network address.
backdoor pathlimit <1-255> Optional. Configures a BGP backdoor route. After configuring the backdoor route, you can optionally configure the as-path hop count limit attribute for this backdoor route.
  • pathlimit <1-255> – Specify the hop count limit from 1 - 255.
pathlimit <1-255> Optional. Configures the maximum path limit for this AS
  • <1-255> – Specify the hop count limit from 1 - 255.
route-map <ROUTE-MAP-NAME> Optional. Associates a BGP route map with this local network. When applied, the route-map values take precedence
  • <ROUTE-MAP-NAME> – Specify the route map name.
