peer dscp

Use peer dscp to set a DSCP value for outgoing BGP packets.

Use undo peer dscp to remove the configuration.

Syntax

peer { group-name | ipv6-address [ prefix-length ] } dscp dscp-value

undo peer { group-name | ipv6-address [ prefix-length ] } dscp

Default

Parameters

group-name: Specifies a peer group by its name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 47 characters. The peer group must have been created.

ipv4-address: Specifies a peer by its IPv4 address. The peer must have been created.

mask-length: Specifies a mask length in the range of 0 to 32. You can use the ipv4-address and mask-length arguments together to specify a subnet. If you specify a subnet, this command specifies a DSCP value for outgoing BGP packets to all dynamic peers in the subnet.

ipv6-address: Specifies a peer by its IPv6 address. The peer must have been created.

prefix-length: Specifies a prefix length in the range of 0 to 128. You can use the ipv6-address and prefix-length arguments together to specify a subnet. If you specify a subnet, this command specifies a DSCP value for outgoing BGP packets to all dynamic peers in the subnet.

dscp-value: Specifies a DSCP value in the range of 0 to 63.

Usage guidelines

The DSCP value of an IP packet specifies the priority level of the packet and affects the transmission priority of the packet. A larger DSCP value represents a higher priority.

Examples

# In BGP instance view, set the DSCP value to 10 for outgoing BGP packets to peer group test.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] bgp 100
[Sysname-bgp-default] peer test dscp 10
