Configuring a Virtual BGF

To configure a virtual BGF:

1. Create a virtual BGF, and assign a name to it. You can configure an IP address as the virtual BGF name. However, the IP address is not used in the operation of the virtual BGF.
   [edit services pgcp]user@host# edit gateway bgf-1
2. Specify the IP address of the virtual BGF. This is the address of the services PIC or DPC that you configured for the BGF.
   [edit services pgcp gateway bgf-1]user@host# set gateway-address 10.10.200.21
3. Specify the port number of the virtual BGF.
   [edit services pgcp gateway bgf-1]user@host# set gateway-port 2944
4. Specify the services PIC or DPC on which the BGF process runs.
   [edit services pgcp gateway bgf-1]user@host# set platform device ms-0/3/0
5. Set the virtual BGF to in-service.
   [edit services pgcp gateway bgf-1]user@host# set service-state in-service
