To disable a peer group, use the neighbor peer-group-name shutdown command in CONFIGURATION-ROUTER-BGP
mode. The configuration of the peer group is maintained, but it is not applied to the peer group members. When you disable a
peer group, all the peers within the peer group that are in the ESTABLISHED state move to the IDLE state.
To view the status of peer groups, use the show ip bgp peer-group command in EXEC Privilege mode, as shown in the
following example.
DellEMC>show ip bgp peer-group

Example-Configuring BGP peer groups
The following example configurations show how to enable BGP and set up some peer groups. These examples are not
comprehensive directions. They are intended to give you some guidance with typical configurations.
To support your own IP addresses, interfaces, names, and so on, you can copy and paste from these examples to your CLI. Be
sure that you make the necessary changes.
The following illustration shows the configurations described on the following examples. These configurations show how to
create BGP areas using physical and virtual links. They include setting up the interfaces and peers groups with each other.
