Examples

This example applies the prefix list "myprefixlist" to incoming advertisements to neighbor 10.11.12.13 for the default VRF.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# router bgp
device(config-bgp-router)# address-family ipv4 unicast
device(config-bgp-ipv4u)# neighbor 10.11.12.13 prefix-list myprefixlist in

This example applies the prefix list "myprefixlist" to outgoing advertisements to neighbor 2001:2018:8192::125 for the default VRF.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# router bgp
device(config-bgp-router)# address-family ipv6 unicast
device(config-bgp-ipv6u)# neighbor 2001:2018:8192::125 prefix-list myprefixlist out

This example applies the prefix list "myprefixlist" to outgoing advertisements to neighbor 2001:2018:8192::125 for VRF instance "red," .

device# configure terminal
device(config)# router bgp
device(config-bgp-router)# address-family ipv6 unicast vrf red
device(config-bgp-ipv6u-vrf)# neighbor 2001:2018:8192::125 prefix-list myprefixlist out
