BGP Network Setting Configuration

You can add static routes directly into BGP. BGP advertises these routes to peers if the network prefix is reachable from the virtual router.

To Add a Network Address

  1. Enter the necessary information:

IP/Netmask: Enter a valid IP address and network mask value that identifies the network that is reachable from the BGP routing instance.

Weight: Enter a locally-assigned weight value. This value is not advertised to peers. If there is more than one route to a destination, the route with the highest weight is preferred.

Route Map: Select the route map that sets the attributes of the route.

Check Reachability: 

Select Yes to direct the BGP routing instance to perform a test to determine whether it can reach a different network prefix before advertising the route to peers. If you select Yes, enter the IP address and netmask of the network prefix that must be reached.

Select No to direct the BGP routing instance not to check whether the network prefix is reachable from the virtual router.

  1. Click Add to save the settings.

The new network is displayed.

To Remove a Network Address

  1. Click Remove in the Option column of the network address that you want to delete.

A system message prompts you to confirm the removal.

  1. Click OK to confirm the removal, or Cancel to cancel it.
