Page 368 highlights

Configuring a large scale IPv6 MBGP network Before you configure the following tasks, you must configure basic IPv6 MBGP functions. Configuring an IPv6 MBGP peer group For easy management and configuration, you can organize some IPv6 MBGP peers that have the same route update policy into a peer group. A policy configured for a peer group applies to all the members in the group. To create an IPv6 MBGP peer group, you must enable an existing IPv6 unicast peer group in IPv6 MBGP address family view. Before adding an IPv6 MBGP peer to the IPv6 MBGP peer group, you must add the corresponding IPv6 BGP unicast peer to the corresponding IPv6 BGP unicast peer group. To configure an IPv6 MBGP peer group: Step Command 1. Enter system view. system-view 2. Enter BGP view. bgp as-number 3. Enter IPv6 address family view. ipv6-family 4. Create an IPv6 BGP peer group. group ipv6-group-name [ external | internal ] peer ipv6-address group 5. Add a peer to the peer group. ipv6-group-name [ as-number as-number ] 6. Enter IPv6 MBGP address family view. 7. Enable the configured IPv6 unicast BGP peer group to create the IPv6 MBGP peer group. ipv6-family multicast peer ipv6-group-name enable 8. Add the IPv6 MBGP peer into peer ipv6-address group the peer group. ipv6-group-name Remarks N/A N/A N/A N/A By default, no peer is added. N/A N/A By default, no peer is added. Configuring IPv6 MBGP community A peer group enables a group of peers to share the same policy, and a community enables a group of IPv6 MBGP routers in multiple ASs to share the same policy. The COMMUNITY attribute is propagated among IPv6 MBGP peers and not restricted to AS boundaries. You can reference a routing policy to modify the COMMUNITY attribute for routes sent to a peer. In addition, you can define extended community attributes as required. For more information about routing policy configuration, see Layer 3-IP Routing Configuration Guide. To advertise the COMMUNITY attribute to an IPv6 MBGP peer or a peer group: 357

Configuring a large scale IPv6 MBGP network
Before you configure the following tasks, you must configure basic IPv6 MBGP functions.
Configuring an IPv6 MBGP peer group
For easy management and configuration, you can organize some IPv6 MBGP peers that have the same
route update policy into a peer group. A policy configured for a peer group applies to all the members
in the group.
To create an IPv6 MBGP peer group, you must enable an existing IPv6 unicast peer group in IPv6 MBGP
address family view.
Before adding an IPv6 MBGP peer to the IPv6 MBGP peer group, you must add the corresponding IPv6
BGP unicast peer to the corresponding IPv6 BGP unicast peer group.
To configure an IPv6 MBGP peer group:
Step

1.
Enter system view.

By default, no peer is added.
6.

7.
Enable the configured IPv6
unicast BGP peer group to
create the IPv6 MBGP peer
group.

N/A
8.
Add the IPv6 MBGP peer into
the peer group.
peer
ipv6-address
group
ipv6-group-name
By default, no peer is added.
Configuring IPv6 MBGP community
A peer group enables a group of peers to share the same policy, and a community enables a group of
IPv6 MBGP routers in multiple ASs to share the same policy. The COMMUNITY attribute is propagated
among IPv6 MBGP peers and not restricted to AS boundaries.
You can reference a routing policy to modify the COMMUNITY attribute for routes sent to a peer. In
addition, you can define extended community attributes as required.
For more information about routing policy configuration, see
Layer 3

To advertise the COMMUNITY attribute to an IPv6 MBGP peer or a peer group:
