Enabling The Ipv6 Mbgp Orf Capability - 3Com S7906E Configuration Manual

To do...
Enable IPv6 BGP route refresh
for a peer/peer group
Perform a manual soft-reset
If the peer does not support route-refresh, you can use the peer keep-all-routes command to save all
the route updates from the peer, and then use the refresh bgp ipv6 multicast command to soft-reset
IPv6 MBGP connections to refresh the IPv6 MBGP routing table and apply the new policy without
tearing down IPv6 MBGP connections.
Follow these steps to perform a manual soft-reset
To do...
Enter system view
Enter BGP view
Enter IPv6 address family view
Enter IPv6 MBGP address
family view
Keep all routes from a
peer/peer group regardless of
whether they pass the inbound
filtering policy
Soft-reset IPv6 MBGP
connections manually

Enabling the IPv6 MBGP ORF Capability

The BGP Outbound Route Filter (ORF) feature allows a BGP speaker to send to its BGP peer a set of
ORFs through Route-refresh messages. The peer then applies the ORFs, in addition to its local routing
policies (if any), to filter updates to the BGP speaker, thus reducing the number of exchanged Update
messages and saving network resources.
After you enable the BGP ORF capability, the local BGP router negotiates the ORF capability with the
BGP peer through Open messages (that is, determine whether to carry ORF information in messages;
if yes, whether to carry non-standard ORF information in the packets). After completing the negotiation
process and establishing the neighboring relationship, the BGP router and its BGP peer can exchange
ORF information through specific Route-refresh messages.
For the parameters configured on both sides for ORF capability negotiation, refer to
