Parameter

Parameter

Description

vrf <vrf-name>

Optional. Specifies a VRF name. The value is a string. It’s a user-defined VRF set by the command set ip vrf <vrf-name> [description <string>].

neighbor <protocol bgppeer>neighbor <ip>Specifies an IP address of neighborthe IP address of a peer.
peer-group <peer-group>Specifies a peer group.
interface <interface>Specifies an interface for BGP connection.


Usage Guidelines

Allow BGP to negotiate the extended-nexthop capability with it’s peer. If you are peering over a IPv6 link-local address then this capability is turned on automatically. If you are peering over a IPv6 Global Address then turning on this command will allow BGP to install IPv4 routes with IPv6 nexthops if you do not have IPv4 configured on interfaces.


Example
• This example enables advertisement of IPv4 prefixes with IPv6 next hops over global IPv6 peerings.
