Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage
Information
You can assign up to 256 peers to one peer group.
When you add a peer to a peer group, it inherits all the peer group’s configured
parameters. A peer cannot become part of a peer group if any of the following
commands are configured on the peer:
•
neighbor advertisement-interval
•
neighbor distribute-list
•
neighbor route-map
•
neighbor route-reflector-client
•
neighbor shutdown
A neighbor may keep its configuration after it was added to a peer group if the
neighbor’s configuration is more specific than the peer group’s, and the neighbor’s
configuration does not affect outgoing updates.
A peer group must exist before you add a peer to it. If the peer group is disabled
(shutdown) the peers within the group are also disabled (shutdown).
