Configuring BGP4
December 2000
19 - 59
BigIron(config)# ip prefix-list Routesfor20 permit 20.20.0.0/24
BigIron(config-bgp-router)# neighbor 10.10.10.1 prefix-list Routesfor20 out
These commands configure an IP prefix list named Routesfor20, which permits routes to network 20.20.0.0/24.
The
neighbor
command configures the Layer 3 Switch to use IP prefix list Routesfor20 to determine which routes
to send to neighbor 10.10.10.1. The Layer 3 Switch sends routes that go to 20.20.x.x to neighbor 10.10.10.1
because the IP prefix list explicitly permits these routes to be sent to the neighbor.
Syntax:
ip prefix-list <name> [seq <seq-value>] [description <string>] deny | permit <network-addr>/<mask-bits>
[ge <ge-value>] [le <le-value>]
The <name> parameter specifies the prefix list name. You use this name when applying the prefix list to a
neighbor.
The
description
<string> parameter is a text string describing the prefix list.
The
seq
<seq-value>
parameter is optional and specifies the IP prefix list’s sequence number. You can configure
up to 100 prefix list entries. If you do not specify a sequence number, the software numbers them in increments of
5, beginning with prefix list entry 5. The software interprets the prefix list entries in numerical order, beginning with
the lowest sequence number.
The
deny | permit
parameter specifies the action the software takes if a neighbor’s route is in this prefix list.
The prefix-list matches only on this network unless you use the
ge
<ge-value> or
le
<le-value> parameters. (See
below.)
The <network-addr>/<mask-bits> parameter specifies the network number and the number of bits in the network
mask.
You can specify a range of prefix length for prefixes that are more specific than <network-addr>/<mask-bits>.
•
If you specify only
ge
<ge-value>, then the mask-length range is from <ge-value> to 32.
•
If you specify only
le
<le-value>, then the mask-length range is from length to <le-value>.
The <ge-value> or <le-value> you specify must meet the following condition:
length < ge-value <= le-value <= 32
If you do not specify
ge
<ge-value> or
le
<le-value>, the prefix list matches only on the exact network prefix you
specify with the <network-addr>/<mask-bits> parameter.
For the syntax of the
neighbor
command shown in the example above, see “Adding BGP4 Neighbors” on
page 19-14.
USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE
To configure an IP Prefix List, use the following procedure:
1.
Log on to the device using a valid user name and password for read-write access. The System configuration
panel is displayed.
2.
Click on the plus sign next to Configure in the tree view to display the list of configuration options.
3.
Click on the plus sign next to IP to display the list of IP configuration options.
4.
Select the Prefix List link.
•
If the device does not have any prefix list ACLs, the IP Prefix List panel is displayed, as shown in the
following example.
•
If a prefix list ACL is already configured and you are adding a new one, click on the Add IP Prefix List link
to display the IP Prefix List panel, as shown in the following example.
