Enabling Client-to-Client Reflection for the BGP L2VPN EVPN Address Family
Client-to-client reflection enables routes
from one client to be reflected to other clients by the host device on which it
is
configured. Client-to-client reflection is enabled by default for the BGP L2VPN
EVPN address
family.
The following task re-enables client-to-client reflection for the BGP L2VPN EVPN address family if it has been disabled.
- Enter global configuration mode.
- Enable BGP routing.
- Configure the autonomous system number (ASN).
- Specify the ASN for the neighbor device.
- Enable BGP L2VPN EVPN address family configuration mode.
- Activate the neighbor to enable the exchange of information with the neighbor.
- Enable the sending of both standard and extended attributes in updates to the specified BGP neighbor.
- Enable client-to-client reflection.
The following example re-enables client-to-client reflection for the BGP L2VPN EVPN address family if it has been disabled.
