Configuring the maximum number of MBGP routes for load
balancing

2. Enter BGP view.
3. Enter IPv4 MBGP address
family view.
4. Configure the maximum
number of MBGP routes for

Configuring a large scale MBGP network

Prerequisites

Before you configure this task, you need to make peering nodes accessible to each other at the network
layer.

Configuring IPv4 MBGP peer groups

In a large-scale network, configuration and maintenance become difficult due to large numbers of MBGP
peers. You can configure peer groups to make management easier and improve route distribution
efficiency.
To do...
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter BGP view.
3. Create a BGP peer group.
4. Add a peer into the peer
group.
5. Enter IPv4 MBGP address
family view.
6. Enable the IPv4 unicast peer
group.
7. Add an IPv4 MBGP peer to
the peer group.
To configure an MBGP peer group, you must enable the corresponding IPv4 BGP unicast peer group in
IPv4 MBGP address family view.
Before adding an MBGP peer to an MBGP peer group, you must add the corresponding IPv4 unicast
peer to the IPv4 BGP peer group.
