Hierarchy Level
[edit logical-systems logical-system-name protocols bgp group group-name neighbor ipv6-link-local-address], [edit logical-systems logical-system-name routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols bgp group group-name neighbor ipv6-link-local-address], [edit protocols bgp group group-name neighbor ipv6-link-local-address], [edit routing-instances routing-instance-name protocols bgp group group-name neighbor ipv6-link-local-address]
Description
Specify the interface name of the EBGP peer that uses IPv6 link-local addresses. This peer is link-local in scope.
Tip:
Configure a local interface only if you need to use the IPv6 link-local addresses as BGP endpoints for an IPv6 BGP session.
Note:
The local interface option does not work if you have configured
the allow option at the [edit protocols bgp group
group-name] hierarchy level. You need to configure a BGP neighbor
with an IPv6 link-local address if you have implicitly allowed peer
connections from specified networks or hosts.
Options
interface-name—Interface name of the EBGP IPv6 peer.
Required Privilege Level
routing—To view this statement in the configuration.
