How to advertise IPV6 prefixs over IPV4 BGP Session

[Fernando Garcia]

I will recommend what everyone else is telling you: establish a new bgp session with IPv6 address neighbors.

But, it can be make over a IPv4 neighbor. I made it as a practice in a training (basically to explain why is not a good idea).

If you do it, you must take two things into account:

1) you must use a route-map to set the next-hop of announced prefixes to you IPv6 address of the link
2) on EBGP this set next-hop is like an extra hop so you must make it ebgp-multihop

On Cisco is something like this:

router bgp 65400
no bgp default ipv4-unicast
neighbor 192.0.2.2 remote-as 65400
!
 address-family ipv6
neighbor 192.0.2.2 activate
network 2001:db8::/32
route-map NH out
!
route-map NH permit 10
 set ipv6 next-hop 2001:DB8:2::1

Hope this helps
