NOTE:

For inter-AS option B, two configuration methods are available:

Do not change the next hop on an ASBR. With this method, you still need to configure MPLS LDP
between ASBRs.

Change the next hop on an ASBR. With this method, MPLS LDP is not required between ASBRs.

The device supports only the second method. Therefore, MP-eBGP routes will get their next hops changed
by default before being redistributed to MP-iBGP. However, normal eBGP routes to be advertised to iBGP
do not have their next hops changed by default. To change the next hop to a local address, use the peer

{

ip-address | group-name } next-hop-local command. For information about the command, see Layer

3—IP Routing Configuration Guide.

Configuring inter-AS option C

Configuring the PEs

You need to establish ordinary iBGP peer relationship between PEs and ASBR PEs in an AS and

MP-eBGP peer relationship between PEs of different ASs.
The PEs and ASBR PEs in an AS must be able to exchange labeled IPv4 routes.
Follow these steps to configure a PE for inter-AS option C:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Enter BGP view

bgp as-number

Configure the ASBR PE in the same
AS as the iBGP peer

peer { group-name | ip-address }
as-number as-number

Required

Enable the PE to exchange labeled
IPv4 routes with the ASBR PE in the

same AS

peer { group-name | ip-address }
label-route-capability

Required
By default, the device does not

advertise labeled routes to the IPv4
peer or peer group.

Configure the PE of another AS as
the eBGP peer

peer { group-name | ip-address }
as-number as-number

Required

Enter BGP-VPNv4 subaddress
family view

ipv4-family vpnv4

Enable the PE to exchange BGP
VPNv4 routing information with the

eBGP peer

peer { group-name | ip-address }
enable

Required

Configure the PE not to change the
next hop of a route when
advertising it to the eBGP peer

peer { group-name | ip-address }
next-hop-invariable

Optional
Required only when RRs are used

to advertise VPNv4 routes, where

the next hop of a route advertised
between RRs cannot be changed.

Configuring the ASBR PEs

In the inter-AS option C solution, an inter-AS LSP is required, and the routes advertised between the

relevant PEs and ASBRs must carry MPLS label information.
