BGP Address Family Configuration

Note This attribute is configurable only for the ipv4 unicast and ipv4 vrf address families.

Send Community—Specifies the community attribute sent in the route updates to a peer. The available options are: both, extended and standard. However, the default is not to send community attribute in route updates.

Update Source—To enable or disable BGP sessions to use a specific operational interface for TCP connections.

Note The Update Source command in the device can specify any interface (physical, virtual, loopback) to be used as source IP address of the BGP session with the neighbor; but in the EM only the loopback interface can be specified. This attribute is configurable only for the ipv4 unicast and ipv4 vrf address families.

Loopback No—This is used to configure Router's Loopback Interface Number. This is valid only if Update-Source is set to YES.
