Usage Information
You can assign up to 64 peers to one peer group.
When you add a peer to a peer group, it inherits all the peer group’s congured parameters. A peer cannot
become part of a peer group if any of the following commands are congured on the peer:
• neighbor advertisement-intervall
• neighbor distribute-list
• neighbor lter-list
• neighbor next-hop-self
• neighbor route-map
• neighbor route-reector-client
• neighbor send-community
A neighbor may keep its conguration after it was added to a peer group if the neighbor’s conguration is
more specic than the peer group’s and the neighbor’s conguration does not aect outgoing updates.
A peer group must exist before you add a peer to it. If the peer group is disabled (shutdown) the peers
within the group are also disabled (shutdown).
