Redistributing Prefixes Into Bgp4 - Dell PowerConnect B-RX Configuration Manual

45
Configuring BGP4+
You must specify the <ipv6-prefix> parameter in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons
as documented in RFC 2373.
You must specify the <prefix-length> parameter as a decimal value. A slash mark (/) must follow
the <ipv6-prefix> parameter and precede the <prefix-length> parameter.
You can specify the optional route-map <name> parameter if you want to change attributes of a
route when importing it into BGP4+.
To disable the importing of a specified route, enter the no form of this command without the
route-map parameter.

Redistributing prefixes into BGP4+

You can configure the switch to redistribute routes from the following sources into BGP4+:
•
•
•
•
•
You can redistribute routes in the following ways:
•
•
For example, to configure the redistribution of all RIPng routes into the BGP4+ unicast database,
enter the following commands at the BGP4+ address family configuration level:
BigIron RX(config-bgp-ipv6u)# redistribute rip
Syntax: redistribute <protocol> [level-1 | level-1-2 | level-2] [match external1 | external2 |
The <protocol> parameter can be connected, isis, ospf, rip, or static.
If you specify isis as the protocol, you can optionally specify the redistribution of level 1, level 1 and
2, or level 2 routes.
If you specify ospf as the protocol, you can optionally specify the redistribution of external 1,
external 2, or internal routes. (The default is internal.)
The metric <metric-value> parameter specifies the metric used for the redistributed route. If a
value is not specified for this option, and no value is specified using the default-metric command at
the BGP4+ unicast address family configuration level, the metric value for the IPv6 static, RIPng, or
IPv6 OSPF route is used. Use a value consistent with the destination protocol.
The <name> parameter specifies a route map name.

Static IPv6 routes.
Directly connected IPv6 networks.
IPv6 IS-IS.
OSPFv3.
RIPng.
By route types, for example, the switch redistributes all IPv6 static and RIPng routes.
By using a route map to filter which routes to redistribute, for example, the switch redistributes
specified IPv6 static and RIPng routes only.
