You can configure a BGP4+ neighbor with
a global IPv6 address.
Procedure
-
Access global configuration
mode.
device# configure terminal
-
Access BGP configuration mode.
device(config)# router bgp
-
Specify the autonomous system in
which your device resides.
device(config-bgp-router)# local-as 1000
-
Specify the autonomous system in
which the remote neighbor resides.
device(config-bgp-router)# neighbor 2001:db8:93e8:cc00::1 remote-as 1001
This example specifies the neighbor command, the neighbor
address of 2001:db8:93e8:cc00::1, the remote-as keyword, and
autonomous system 1001.
-
Access IPv6 address family
configuration mode.
device(config-bgp-router)# address-family ipv6 unicast
-
Enable the exchange of
information with the neighbor.
device(config-bgp-ipv6u)# neighbor 2001:db8:93e8:cc00::1 activate
This example specifies the neighbor command, the neighbor
address, and the activate keyword.
Example
The following example summarizes the commands in
this procedure.
device# configure terminal
device(config)# router bgp
device(config-bgp-router)# local-as 1000
device(config-bgp-router)# neighbor 2001:db8:93e8:cc00::1 remote-as 1001
device(config-bgp-router)# address-family ipv6 unicast
device(config-bgp-ipv6u)# neighbor 2001:db8:93e8:cc00::1 activate
