Specifying The Source Interface For Establishing Tcp Connections - 3Com S7906E Configuration Manual

To do...
Enter system view
Enter BGP view
Enter IPv6 address family view
Configure a preferred value for
routes received from an IPv6
peer/peer group
If you both reference a routing policy and use the command peer { ipv6-group-name | ipv6-address }
preferred-value value to set a preferred value for routes from a peer/peer group, the routing policy sets
a non-zero preferred value for routes matching it. Other routes not matching the routing policy uses the
value set with the command. If the preferred value in the routing policy is zero, the routes matching it will
also use the value set with the command. For information about using a routing policy to set a preferred
value, refer to the command peer { group-name | ipv4-address | ipv6-address } route-policy
route-policy-name { import | export } in this document, and the command apply preferred-value
preferred-value in Routing Policy Commands of the IP Routing Volume.

Specifying the Source Interface for Establishing TCP Connections

Follow these steps to specify the source interface for establishing TCP connections to a BGP peer or
peer group:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter BGP view
Enter IPv6 address family view
Specify the source interface for
establishing TCP connections
to an IPv6 BGP peer or peer
group
Use the command...
system-view
bgp as-number
ipv6-family
peer { ipv6-group-name |
ipv6-address } preferred-value
value
Use the command...
system-view
bgp as-number
ipv6-family
peer { ipv6-group-name |
ipv6-address }
connect-interface
interface-type interface-number
1-4

Required
By default, IPv6 BGP uses the
outbound interface of the best
route to the IPv6 BGP peer or
peer group as the source
interface for establishing a TCP
connection.
