    Configuration prerequisites 
    IPv6 MBGP is an application of multiprotocol BGP. Before you configure IPv6 MBGP, complete the 
    following tasks: 
    •  Enable IPv6. 
    •   Configure network layer addresses for interfaces. 
    •   Complete BGP basic configuration.

    Configuring a preferred value for  routes from a peer or a peer 
    group 
    If you both reference a routing policy and use the command  peer { ipv6-group-name  | ipv6-address  } 
    preferred-value  value  to set a preferred value for routes from a peer or a peer group, the routing policy 
    sets the specified preferred value for the routes that match it. Other routes that do not match the routing 
    policy use the value set through the command. If the preferred value in the routing policy is 0, the routes 
    that match it will also use the value set through the  peer { ipv6-group-name  | ipv6-address } 
    preferred-value  value  command. To learn how to use a routing policy to set a preferred value, see the 
    peer  { ipv6-group-name  | ipv6-address  } route-policy  route -policy-name  { import  | export  } command 
    and the  apply preferred-value  preferred-value  command. For more information about these commands, 
    see  Layer 3—IP Routing Command Reference .

    | 
    ipv6-address  } 
    default-route-advertise 
    [ route-policy 
    route-policy-name  ]
      Not advertised by default. 
    With the peer 
    default-route-advertise  
    command executed, the router sends a 
    default route with the next hop as itself 
    to the specified IPv6 MBGP peer or the 
    specified peer group, regardless of 
    whether the default route is available in 
    the routing table.

    4.  Configure outbound IPv6 
    MBGP route filtering.  
    • Configure the filtering of outgoing 
    routes: 
    filter-policy  { acl6-number  |  
    ipv6-prefix  ipv6-prefix-name  }  export  
    [  protocol process-id  ] 
    • Specify an IPv6 ACL to filter routes 
    advertised to a peer or a peer group:
     
    peer {  ipv6-group-name  | 
    ipv6-address  } filter-policy  
    acl6-number  export  
    • Specify an AS path ACL to filter IPv6 
    MBGP routing information advertised 
    to a peer or a peer group: 
    peer {  ipv6-group-name  | 
    ipv6-address  } as-path-acl  
    as-path-acl-number  export  
    • Specify an IPv6 prefix list to filter 
    routes advertised to a peer or a peer 
    group: 
    peer {  ipv6-group-name  | 
    ipv6-address  } ipv6-prefix  
    ipv6-prefix-name  export  
    • Apply a routing policy to routes 
    advertised to a peer or a peer group:
     
    peer {  ipv6-group-name  | 
    ipv6-address  } route-policy  
    route -policy-name  export   Use any of the commands. 
    No filtering is configured by 
    default. 
    You can configure filter 
    policies as required. If you 
    configure multiple filter 
    policies, they are applied in 
    the following order:  
    5.
      filter-policy export 
    6.   peer filter-policy export 
    7.   peer as-path-acl export 
    8.   peer ipv6-prefix export 
    9.   peer route-policy export  
    A filter policy can be applied 
    only after the previous one is 
    passed. Routing information 
    can be advertised only after 
    passing all the configured filter 
    policies.   
     
     NOTE: 
    •  Members of an IPv6 MBGP peer 
    group must have the same outbound route filtering policy as the peer
    group. 
    •   IPv6 BGP advertises the redistributed routes that pass the specified policy to the IPv6 MBGP peer.

    peer next-hop-local  command is configured. 
    In a third-party next-hop network, that is, the local router has two IPv6 multicast EBGP peers in a 
    broadcast network, the router does not specify itself as  the next hop of routes sent to the EBGP peers by 
    default. 
    To specify the router as the next hop of  routes sent to a peer or a peer group: 
     
    Step Command  Remarks 
    1.  Enter system view.  system-view  N/A 
    2.  Enter BGP view.  
    bgp as-number   N/A

    peer or the peer group.  peer {
     ipv6-group-name  | 
    ipv6-address  } next-hop-local
     Optional. 
    By default, IPv6
     MBGP specifies 
    the local router as the next hop for 
    routes sent to an EBGP peer or a 
    peer group, but not for routes sent 
    to an IBGP peer or a peer group.

    routes from a peer or a peer 
    group and specify the number 
    of times that the local AS 
    number can appear in the 
    as-path of routes from the peer 
    or the peer group.  peer { ipv6-group-name 
    | 
    ipv6-address  } allow-as-loop  
    [ number  ]
      Optional. 
    Not allowed by default.
     
    5.  Disable IPv6 MBGP from 
    considering the as_path 
    during best route selection.  bestroute as-path-neglect 
    Optional.

    or a peer group to carry only 
    the public AS number.  peer { ipv6-group-name 
    | 
    ipv6-address } public-as-only  Optional. 
    By default, outbound IPv6 MBGP 
    updates can carry private AS 
    numbers.
     
     
    Tuning and optimizing IPv6 MBGP networks 
    Configuration prerequisites 
    Before you tune and optimize an OSPF network, complete the following tasks:  
    •  Enable IPv6. 
    •   Configure basic IPv6 MBGP functions. 
    Configuring IPv6 MBGP soft reset 
    After you modify a route selection policy, you must  reset IPv6 MBGP connections to make the new one 
    take effect.  
    The current IPv6 MBGP implementation supports the route-refresh feature that enables dynamic route 
    refresh without terminating IPv6 MBGP connections.  
    If a peer that does not support route refresh exists in the network, you must configure the  peer 
    keep-all-routes  command to save all routes from the peer. When the routing policy is changed, the 
    system will update the IPv6 MBGP routing table and apply the new policy. 
    Performing soft reset through route refresh 
    If the peer is enabled with route refresh, when the IPv6 MBGP route selection policy is modified on a 
    router, the router advertises a route -refresh message to its IPv6 MBGP peers, which resend their routing 
    information to the router after they receive the message. Therefore, the local router can perform dynamic 
    route update and apply the new policy with out terminating IPv6 MBGP connections. 
    To configure IPv6 MBGP soft reset through route refresh:  
     
    Step  Command  Remarks 
    1.  Enter system view.  system-view  N/A 
    2.  Enter BGP view.  
    bgp as-number   N/A
      
    						
    							 423 
    Step  Command  Remarks 
    3.  Enter IPv6 address family 
    view.   ipv6-family 
    N/A
     
    4.  Enable IPv6 BGP route refresh 
    for a peer or a peer group.  peer { ipv6-group-name
     | 
    ipv6-address }  capability-advertise  
    route-refresh  Optional. 
    Enabled by default.
     
     
    Performing soft reset manually 
    If the peer does not support route refresh, you can use the  peer keep-all-routes command to save all the 
    route updates from the peer, and then use the  refresh bgp ipv6 multicast command to soft-reset IPv6 
    MBGP connections to refresh the IPv6 MBGP routing table and apply the new policy without terminating 
    IPv6 MBGP connections. 
    To perform soft reset manually: 
     
    Step  Command  Remarks 
    1.  Enter system view.  system-view  N/A 
    2.  Enter BGP view.  
    bgp as-number   N/A
     
    3.  Enter IPv6 address family 
    view.  ipv6-family 
    N/A 
    4.  Enter IPv6 MBGP address 
    family view.   ipv6-family multicast 
    N/A 
    5.  Keep all routes from a peer or 
    a peer group regardless of 
    whether they pass the 
    inbound filtering policy.  peer {
     ipv6-group-name  | ipv6-address  } 
    keep-all-routes  Not kept by default.
     
    6.  Perform soft reset manually.  refresh bgp
     ipv6 multicast  {  all  | 
    ipv6-address |  group ipv6-group-name  | 
    external  | internal  } { export  | import  }  Optional.
     
     
    Enabling the IPv6 MBGP orf capability 
    The BGP Outbound Route Filter (ORF) feature enables a BGP speaker to send a set of ORFs to its BGP 
    peer through route-refresh messages. The peer then  applies the ORFs, in addition to its local routing 
    policies (if any), to filter updates to the BGP spea ker, thus reducing the number of exchanged update 
    messages and saving network resources.  
    After you enable the ORF capability, the local BGP router negotiates the ORF capability with the BGP 
    peer through open messages. That is, the router determines whether to carry ORF information in 
    messages, and if yes, whether to carry non-standar d ORF information in the packets. After completing 
    the negotiation process and establishing the neighbor ing relationship, the BGP router and its BGP peer 
    can exchange ORF information through specific route-refresh messages.  
    For the parameters configured on both si des for ORF capability negotiation, see Tabl e  12.
