Motorola BSR 2000 manual Neighbor maximum-prefix

Release 1.0 BGP Commands

neighbor maximum-prefix

The neighbor maximum-prefixcommand controls the number of prefixes accepted from a neighbor. The no neighbor maximum-prefixcommand stops the controlled number of prefixes accepted from a neighbor.

Use the neighbor maximum-prefixcommand to manage the number of prefixes accepted from a neighbor.

Note: A prefix is a classless route or a route with a particular starting point and length, with unlimited prefixes. Therefore, 198.7.97.0/27 and 198.7.97.0/ 20 are not the same prefix (route). If the maximum number of acceptable prefixes configured is exceeded, the router ends peering, which is the default.
