This command creates and enables BGP auto-peering using specified BGP router ID and AS number.
| routerid | Designates a BGP router ID. |
| ipaddress | Specifies the BGP router ID as an IP address in IPv4 format (x.y.z.w). |
| AS-number | Designates unique BGP Autonomous System (AS) number. |
| asNumber | Specifies the AS number (1–4,294,967,295). |
N/A
This command creates VLANs dynamically. It also creates a loopback VLAN with an IP address of the BGP router ID. Within BGP, the router ID, AS number, and easyBGP capability are configured along with redistribution of host-mobility routes. Dynamic VLANs are created if no VLANs are specified.
A save and reboot is required if ECMP exceeds 16.
To view BGP auto-peering status, use the command show auto-peering {bgp | ospf}.
The following example creates auto-peering using BGP router ID at 10.3.4.2 with AS 52:
# create auto-peering bgp routerid 10.3.4.2 AS-number 52
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 22.5.
