Configure Out-of-band for a Tenant BGP Peer or Peer Group

About this task

Create out-of-band (OOB) BGP peer group and BGP static or dynamic peer for the use in EFA. Provide the exact BGP peer group or BGP peer configuration in EFA. The configuration enables EFA to manage the BGP peer group and BGP peer created by OOB.

Procedure

  1. On both devices, run the show running-config router bgp command to configure OOB.
  2. Run the following command for EFA consumption of OOB BGP Peer Group: 
    (efa:root)root@node-2:~# efa tenant service bgp peer-group create --name ten1bgppg1 --tenant ten1 --pg-name 10.20.246.15:pg1 --pg-asn 10.20.246.15,pg1:65001  --pg-name 10.20.246.16:pg1 --pg-asn 10.20.246.16,pg1:65001
Error :  conflicting peer group: [10.20.246.15,pg1:,65001,false,,] and [10.20.246.15,pg1:,65002,false,,] which is not created by Tenant service
