BGP Support for IP Clustering

Nokia IPSO supports BGP in IP clusters. With previous versions of IPSO, clusters did not
support dynamic routing. On a failover, BGP stops running on the previous master and
establishes its peering relationship on a new master. You must configure a cluster IP address as a
local address when you run BGP in clustered mode. For more information on IP Clustering, see
"IP Clustering Description"
Note
Nokia recommends that you configure BGP in an IP cluster so that peer traffic does not run
on the primary and secondary cluster protocol interfaces.
Note
BGP support for IP clustering is only available for IPv4 BGP sessions, not for IPv6. On an IP
cluster, you are not allowed to configure IPv6 peer.
