Usage guidelines

After you create a BGP peer in BGP-VPN instance view, the BGP routes learned from the peer are added into the routing table of the specified VPN instance.

This command and all commands in BGP-VPN instance view are typically executed on provider edge (PE) or Multi-VPN-Instance CE (MCE) devices to add routes learned from different sites into different VPN instances.

Before you execute this command, use the ip vpn-instance command to create the VPN instance in system view, and use the route-distinguisher command to configure a route distinguisher (RD) for the VPN instance.

Examples

# Enter BGP-VPN instance view of VPN instance vpn1.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ip vpn-instance vpn1
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn1] route-distinguisher 100:1
[Sysname-vpn-instance-vpn1] quit
[Sysname] bgp 100
[Sysname-bgp] ip vpn-instance vpn1
[Sysname-bgp-vpn1]
