Dell Force10 S4820T FTOS Command Reference Guide - Page 843

Usage Information Loopback interfaces are up constantly and the BGP session may need one interface constantly up to stabilize the session. The neighbor update-source command is not necessary for directly connected internal BGP sessions. neighbor weight c e Assign a weight to the neighbor connection, which is used to determine the best path. Syntax Parameters Defaults Command Modes Command History Usage Information neighbor {ipv6-address | peer-group-name} weight weight To remove a weight value, use the no neighbor {ipv6-address | peer-group-name} weight weight command. ipv6-address peer-group-name weight 0 ROUTER BGP Enter the IPv6 address in the x:x:x:x::x format. The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros. Enter the name of the peer group to disable all routers within the peer group. Enter a number as the weight. Range: 0 to 65535 Default: 0 Version 8.3.19.0 Version 8.4.2.1 Version 8.2.1.0 Version 7.4.1.0 Introduced on S4820T Introduced on C-Series and S4810 Introduced on E-Series ExaScale Introduced on E-Series TeraScale In the FTOS best path selection process, the path with the highest weight value is preferred. Note: Reset the neighbor connection (capture bgp-pdu max-buffer-size * command) to apply the weight to the connection and recompute the best path. network c e Specify the networks for the BGP process and enter them in the BGP routing table.
