configure at least one BGP neighbor:

configure policies for exchanging routes with a neighbor:

neighbor, according to address, prefix length, or other attributes—
applications include:
– preventing multihomed routers from advertising external routes
– accepting routes only from authorized remote sites
– setting the policy for a community
• place a route in a community to request that the neighbor advertises
it to certain peers only
• apply attributes to accepted routes:
– local preference
– community
– deleting communities defined for the routes
configure policies to load balance:
• configure an interface as the source of external updates
• prepend private AS numbers to help balance inbound traffic
• set a multi-exit discriminator to help balance inbound traffic
enable inbound soft reconfiguration
set an administrative distance for routes discovered by BGP
alter BGP intervals
