NOTE:
•
To ensure an iBGP peer can find the correct next hop, configure routes advertised to the IPv6 iBGP peer
or peer group to use the local router as the next hop. If BGP load balancing is configured, the local
router specifies itself as the next hop of routes sent to an IPv6 iBGP peer or peer group regardless of
whether the
peer next-hop-local
command is configured.
•
In a
third party next hop network where the two IPv6 eBGP peers reside in a common broadcast subnet,
the router does not change the next hop for routes sent to the IPv6 eBGP peer or peer group by default,
unless the
peer next-hop-local
command is configured.
