BGP Peering Group Configuration
564
G8332 Command Reference for ENOS 8.4
These commands enable you to configure BGP peering for a group of remote
neighbors defined by a range of IP addresses. Each range can be configured as a
subnet IP address. After a subnet range is configured for a BGP peer group and a
TCP session is established for an IP address in that subnet range, a new BGP
neighbor is dynamically created as a member of that group and inherits the
configuration from the peer group.
