Usage Guidelines
•
This address does not override the router identification for this BGP peer (configured in the
neighbor command). It is the address through which this peer can be contacted within this router. The
router identification for a peer, especially an external peer, may not exist in the local router, but that
distant peer can still be contacted via this router. This command sets the local address through which
this distant peer can be contacted.
•
The default is restored by entering the command without a IP address.
•
The BGP peer is restarted after issuing this command.
•
The update-source is not related to the router-id, it specifies the interface to be used for the TCP
connection endpoint. By default, the nearest interface is selected.
