neighbor { ipAddress | ipv6Address | peerGroupName } maximum-prefix maximum
[ threshold ] [ strict ] [ warning-only ]
no neighbor { ipAddress | ipv6Address | peerGroupName } maximum-prefix
[ maximum ][ threshold ] [ strict ] [ warning-only ]
Command introduced before JunosE Release 7.1.0.
ipv6Address variable added in JunosE Release 8.0.0.
Sets the number of prefixes that can be received from a neighbor. The no version removes
the maximum prefix limitation.
ipAddress—IP address of BGP neighbor
ipv6Address—IPv6 address of BGP neighbor
peerGroupName—Name of the BGP peer group. If you specify a BGP peer group by
using the peerGroupName argument, all the members of the peer group inherit the
characteristic configured with this command, unless it is overridden for a specific peer.
maximum—Maximum number of prefixes; default value is no limit
threshold—Percent of maximum at which to log a warning in the range 0–100; default
value is 75
strict—Checks the maximum prefix limit against all received routes rather than the
default behavior of checking it only against accepted routes
warning-only—Causes BGP software to log a warning, rather than reset the connection
if the maximum or threshold value is exceeded
