neighbors
Example:
switch(config-router-neighbor-af)#
show bgp ip unicast neighbors
Step 11
copy running-config startup-config
Example:
switch(config-router-neighbor-af)#
copy running-config startup-config
This example shows how to configure the router as a route reflector and add one neighbor as a client:
switch(config)# router bgp 65536
switch(config-router)# neighbor 192.0.2.10 remote-as 65536
switch(config-router-neighbor)# address-family ip unicast
switch(config-router-neighbor-af)# route-reflector-client
switch(config-router-neighbor-af)# copy running-config startup-config
Configuring Route Dampening
You can configure route dampening to minimize route flaps propagating through your iBGP network.
To configure route dampening, use the following command in address-family or VRF address family
configuration mode:
Command
dampening [{ half-life reuse-limit
suppress-limit max-suppress-time |
route-map map-name }]
Example:
switch(config-router-af)# dampening
route-map bgpDamp
Configuring Load Sharing and ECMP
You can configure the maximum number of paths that BGP adds to the route table for equal-cost
multipath load balancing.
To configure the maximum number of paths, use the following command in router address-family
configuration mode:
Command
maximum-paths [ibgp] maxpaths
Example:
switch(config-router-af)# maximum-paths 12
