RDN(config-bgp)#neighbor{ip-address | peer-group-name} remote-as
number
where:
ip-address is the IP address of the neighbor
peer-group-name is the name of the BGP peer group
number is the AS to which the neighbor belongs
3. To associate a textual description of up to 80 characters with a BGP neighbor, use
the neighbor description command in Router Interface Configuration mode, as
shown in the following example:
RDN(config-bgp)#neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} description text
where:
ip-address is the IP address of the neighbor
peer-group-name is the name of the BGP peer group
text is up to 80 characters of text that describes the neighbor
For example, the following commands configure Routers Miami with Routers
Chicago, Boston, and NY as neighbors:
RDN(config-bgp)#router bgp 100
RDN(config-bgp)##neighbor 172.30.20.2 remote-as 100
RDN(config-bgp)#neighbor 172.30.20.2 description peer NY
RDN(config-bgp)#neighbor 172.40.20.2 remote-as 100
RDN(config-bgp)#neighbor 172.40.20.2 description peer Chicago
RDN(config-bgp)#neighbor 192.50.30.2 remote-as 300
RDN(config-bgp)#neighbor 192.50.30.2 description peer Boston
RDN(config-bgp)#network 120.20.0.0
4. To verify that BGP peer routers have been established and are functioning
correctly, use the show ip bgp summary command in Privileged EXEC mode, as
shown in the following example:
RDN#show ip bgp summary
5. To view route entries in the BGP table after the BGP peer sessions are
established, use the show ip bgp command in Privileged EXEC mode, as shown
in the following example:
RDN#show ip bgp
