Configuring a route reflector client
A BGP peer can be configured as a route reflector client.
- Enter the
configure terminalcommand to access global configuration mode. - Enter the
router bgpcommand to enable BGP routing. - Enter the
local-ascommand to configure the autonomous system number (ASN) in which your device resides. - Enter the
address-family ipv6 unicastcommand to enter IPv6 address family configuration mode. - Enter the
neighbor route-reflector-clientcommand, specifying an IPv6 address, to configure a specified neighbor to be a route reflector client.
The following example configures a neighbor with the IPv6 address 2001:db8:e0ff:783a::4 to be a route reflector client.
device# configure terminal device(config)# router bgp device(config-bgp-router)# local-as 1000 device(config-bgp-router)# address-family ipv6 unicast device(config-bgp-ipv6u)# neighbor 2001:db8:e0ff:783a::4 route-reflector-client
