Cisco IOS XR Routing Configuration Guide
BGP Router Identifier
For BGP sessions between neighbors to be established, BGP must be assigned a router ID. The router
ID is sent to BGP peers in the OPEN message when a BGP session is established.
BGP attempts to obtain a router ID in the following ways (in order of preference):
• By means of the address configured using the bgp router-id command in router configuration mode.
• By assigning a primary IPv4 address to the interface specified using the bgp router-id command in
router configuration mode.
Note If the specified interface does not have an IPv4 address, or is not up, BGP will fail to obtain a router ID.
• By using the address specified with the router-id command in global configuration mode if the
router is booted with the saved router-id command and if the ID from this command is available
when the last saved loopback configuration is applied.
• By using the primary IPv4 address on the interface specified with the router-id command in global
configuration mode if the box is booted with the saved router-id command in global configuration
mode and if the router ID is up by the time all saved loopback configurations are applied.
• By using the highest IPv4 address on a loopback interface in the system if the router is booted with
saved loopback address configuration.
• By using the primary IPv4 address of the first loopback address that gets configured if there are not
any in the saved configuration.
If none of these methods for obtaining a router ID succeeds, BGP does not have a router ID and cannot
establish any peering sessions with BGP neighbors. In such an instance, an error message is entered in
the system log, and the show bgp summary command displays a router ID of 0.0.0.0.
After BGP has obtained a router ID, it continues to use it even if a better router ID becomes available.
This usage avoids unnecessary flapping for all BGP sessions. However, if the router ID currently in use
becomes invalid (because the interface goes down or its configuration is changed), BGP selects a new
router ID (using the rules described) and all established peering sessions are reset.
We strongly recommend that the bgp router-id command is configured to prevent unnecessary changes
to the router ID (and consequent flapping of BGP sessions).
BGP Default Limits
Cisco IOS XR BGP imposes maximum limits on the number of neighbors that can be configured on the
router and on the maximum number of prefixes that are accepted from a peer for a given address family.
This limitation safeguards the router from resource depletion caused by misconfiguration, either locally
or on the remote neighbor. The following limits apply to BGP configurations:
• The default maximum number of peers that can be configured is 1024. The default can be changed
using the bgp maximum neighbor command. The limit range is 1 to 1500. Any attempt to configure
additional peers beyond the maximum limit or set the maximum limit to a number that is less than
the number of peers currently configured will fail.
• To prevent a peer from flooding BGP with advertisements, a limit is placed on the number of
prefixes that are accepted from a peer for each supported address family. The default limits can be
overridden through configuration of the maximum-prefix limit command for the peer for the
appropriate address family. The following default limits are used if the user does not configure the
maximum number of prefixes for the address family:
