Neighbor Address Family Configuration Mode
An address family configuration submode inside the neighbor configuration submode is available for
entering address family-specific neighbor configuration and enabling the address family for the
neighbor. Use this mode for advanced features such as limiting the number of prefixes allowed for this
neighbor and removing private AS numbers for eBGP.
This example shows how to enter neighbor address family configuration mode:
switch(config)# router bgp 64496
switch(config-router# neighbor 192.0.2.1
switch(config-router-neighbor)# address-family ipv4 unicast
switch(config-router-neighbor-af)#
This example shows how to enter VRF neighbor address family configuration mode:
switch(config)# router bgp 64497
switch(config-router)# vrf vrf_A
switch(config-router-vrf)# neighbor 209.165.201.1
switch(config-router-vrf-neighbor)# address-family ipv4 unicast
switch(config-router-vrf-neighbor-af)#
