IPv6 BGP Configuration
z
The term “router” in this document refers to a router in a generic sense or a Layer 3 switch.
z
EA boards (such as LSQ1GP12EA and LSQ1TGX1EA) do not support IPv6 features.

This chapter describes only configuration for IPv6 BGP. For BGP related information, refer to BGP

IPv6 BGP Overview
BGP-4 was designed to carry only IPv4 routing information, and thus other network layer protocols such
as IPv6 are not supported.
To support multiple network layer protocols, IETF extended BGP-4 by introducing Multiprotocol BGP
(MP-BGP), which is defined in RFC 2858 (multiprotocol extensions for BGP-4).
MP-BGP for IPv6 is referred to as IPv6 BGP for short.
IPv6 BGP puts IPv6 network layer information into the attributes of network layer reachable information
(NLRI) and NEXT_HOP.
The NLRI attribute of IPv6 BGP involves:
z
MP_REACH_NLRI: Multiprotocol Reachable NLRI, for advertising reachable route and next hop
information.
z
MP_UNREACH_NLRI: Multiprotocol Unreachable NLRI, for withdrawal of unreachable routes.
The NEXT_HOP attribute of IPv6 BGP is identified by an IPv6 unicast address or IPv6 local link
address.
IPv6 BGP has the same messaging and routing mechanisms as BGP.
