This command enables ORF capabilities for a particular peer, peer-group, or all peers for one or all address-families and ORF types (for example, communities, extended communities and prefixes). The command specifies whether ORF capabilities are sent to the peer, and if they are honoured if received from the peer, or both.
| peer-group-name | Specifies a peer group. |
| address-family | Specifies outbound route filtering. |
| ipv4-unicast | Specifies an IPv4 unicast address family. |
| ipv4-multicast | Specifies an IPv4 multicast address family. |
| community | Enables ORF for communities. |
| ext-community | Enables ORF for extended communities. |
| prefix | Enables ORF for prefixes. |
| send | Enables ORF filter list send capability. |
| receive | Enables ORF filter list receive capability. |
| both | Enables ORF filter list send and receive capability. |
Note
prefix is not supported for vpnv4 address family.The route refresh capability is enabled for IPv6 peer groups by default.
By specifying the address-family, type and direction in multiple commands you can better control the ORF capabilities sent to a peer. In cases where a particular address-family is explicitly disabled for a peering, the ORF capability configuration for that address-family is ignored and not sent.
ORF capabilities can only be enabled for IPv4 neighbors and only for IPv4 address families. If configured for IPv6 neighbors or address-families the command is rejected with the following error message:
Outbound-route-filtering not supported for IPv6 neighbors, or Outbound-route-filtering not supported for address family addr_family .
The following command enables send only ORF capabilities for an ipv4 multicast peer group:
enable bgp peer-group capability orf address-family ipv4-multicast type community send
