BGP configuration task list

In a basic BGP network, you only need to perform the following configurations:
Enable BGP.
•
Configure BGP peers or peer groups. If you configure a BGP setting at both the peer group and the
•
peer level, the most recent configuration takes effect on the peer.
• Control BGP route generation.
To control BGP route distribution and path selection, you must perform additional configuration tasks.
To configure BGP, perform the following tasks (IPv4):
