Configuring An Ipv6 Mbgp Route Reflector - HP 4800G Series Configuration Manual

You can reference a route policy to modify the community attribute for routes sent to a peer. In addition,
you can define extended community attributes as needed.
Follow these steps to advertise the community attribute to an IPv6 MBGP peer/peer group:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter BGP view
Enter IPv6 MBGP address
family view
Advertise the community
attribute to an IPv6 MBGP
peer/peer group
Advertise the extended
community attribute to an IPv6
MBGP peer/peer group
Apply a route policy to routes
sent to an IPv6 MBGP
peer/peer group
You need to configure a route policy to define the community attribute, and apply the policy to
outgoing routes.
For route policy configuration, refer to Route Policy Configuration in the IP Routing Volume.

Configuring an IPv6 MBGP Route Reflector

To guarantee connectivity between IPv6 multicast iBGP peers, you need to make them fully meshed,
but it becomes unpractical when there are too many IPv6 multicast iBGP peers. Using route reflectors
can solve the problem.
Follow these steps to configure an IPv6 BGP route reflector:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter BGP view
Enter IPv6 MBGP address
family view
Configure the router as a route
reflector and specify an IPv6
MBGP peer/peer group as its
client
Enable route reflection
between clients
Use the command...
system-view
bgp as-number
ipv6-family multicast
peer { ipv6-group-name |
ipv6-address }
advertise-community
peer { ipv6-group-name |
ipv6-address }
advertise-ext-community
peer { ipv6-group-name |
ipv6-address } route-policy
route-policy-name export
Use the command...
system-view
bgp as-number
ipv6-family multicast
peer { ipv6-group-name |
ipv6-address } reflect-client
reflect between-clients
