Defining BGP Global Properties

To define BGP global properties, which apply to all BGP groups and peers, include one or more of the following statements. These statements are explained in separate sections.

For a list of hierarchy levels at which you can configure these statements, see the statement summary sections for these statements.

You must configure BGP global properties to enable BGP.
