BGP Peer and Peer
Group
Definition of peer and peer group
As described in Section “BGP Routing Mechanism” “BGP Routing Mechanism”,
BGP speakers among which messages are exchanged are peers to one another.
Multiple related peers compose a peer group, and multiple related peers compose
a peer group.

Relationship between peer configuration and peer group configuration
In Switch 8800 Family series, a BGP peer must belong to a peer group. If you want
to configure a BGP peer, you need first to create a peer group and then add a peer
into the group.

BGP peer group feature can simplify user configuration and improve route
advertisement efficiency. When added into a peer group, a peer inherits all the
configuration of the group.
advertisement efficiency. When added into a peer group, a peer inherits all the
configuration of the group.
If the configuration of a peer group changes, the configuration of its member
peers also alters. Some attributes can be configured to a particular member peer
by specifying its IP address. The attributes configured in this way is with higher
priority than those by configuring for peer group. It should be noted that all
member peers must use the same update policy as its group, but may use different
ingress policy.
