Concept Guide

To disable, use the no neighbor {ipv4-address | peer-group-name} fall-over command.
Parameters
ipv4-address Enter the IP address of the neighbor in dotted decimal format.
peer-group-name Enter the name of the peer group.
Defaults Disabled.
Command Modes ROUTER BGP
Supported Modes Full–Switch

Version Description
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
9.2(0.0) Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage Information When you enable failover, BGP keeps track of IP or IPv6 ability to reach the peer remote address and the peer local
address. Whenever either address becomes unreachable (for example, no active route exists in the routing table
for the peer IP or IPv6 destination/local address), BGP brings down the session with the peer.
Related Commands show ip bgp neighbors — displays information on the BGP neighbors.
neighbor local-as
To accept external routes from neighbors with a local AS number in the AS number path, congure Internal BGP (IBGP) routers.
Syntax
neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} local-as as-number [no-prepend]
To return to the default value, use the no neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} local-as
command.
Parameters
ip-address Enter the IP address of the neighbor in dotted decimal format.
peer-group-name Enter the name of the peer group to set the advertisement interval for all routers in the
peer group.
as-number Enter the AS number to reset all neighbors belonging to that AS. The range is from 0 to
65535 (2 byte), from 1 to 4294967295 (4 byte) or from 0.1 to 65535.65535 (dotted
format).
no prepend Species that local AS values do not prepend to announcements from the neighbor.
Defaults Not congured.
