8.10.4 Creating a Mixed EBGP Peer Group

When BGP4+ has multiple EBGP peers that belong to different ASs, you can create a mixed
EBGP peer group to simplify the management of routing policies. When creating a mixed EBGP
peer group, you need to specify the AS number for each peer.
Context
Do as follows on the BGP4+ switch:
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
bgp as-number
The BGP view is displayed.
Step 3 Run:
group group-name external
A mixed EBGP peer group is created.
Step 4 Run:
peer ipv6-address as-number as-number
The AS number of the IPv6 peer is set.
Step 5 Run:
ipv6-family [ unicast ]
The BGP IPv6 unicast address family view is displayed.
Step 6 Run:
peer group-name enable
The peer group is enabled.
Step 7 Run:
peer ipv6-address group group-name
The IPv6 peers created are added to this peer group.
After an EBGP peer is added to the peer group, the system automatically enables each EBGP
peer in the IPv6 address family view.
When creating a mixed EBGP peer group, you need to create peers separately, and you can
configure different AS numbers for them, but cannot configure the AS number for the peer group.
