To configure basic MBGP functions: Step Command 1. Enter system view. system-view 2. Enter BGP view. bgp as-number 3. Specify a peer or peer group peer { group-name | ip-address } and its AS number. as-number as-number 4. Enter IPv4 MBGP address family view. ipv4-family multicast 5. Enable a peer or peer group peer { group-name | ip-address } created in IPv4 unicast view. enable 6. Specify a preferred value for routes from an IPv4 MBGP peer or peer group. peer { group-name | ip-address } preferred-value value Remarks N/A N/A Not specified by default. N/A Not enabled by default. Optional. The default preferred value is 0. Controlling route advertisement and reception Before configuring this task, configure basic MBGP functions first. Configuring MBGP route redistribution MBGP can advertise routing information in the local AS to neighboring ASs. It redistributes such routing information from IGP into its routing table rather than learning the information by itself. To configure MBGP route redistribution: 187

Configuring MBGP route redistribution
MBGP can advertise routing information in the local AS to neighboring ASs. It redistributes such routing
information from IGP into its routing table rather than learning the information by itself.
