Command History
Usage Guidelines Use the neighbor command to enter the BGP neighbor configuration mode. When you enter the
neighbor command, the prompt changes to switch(config-router-neighbor)#.
From the BGP neighbor configuration mode, you can perform the following actions:
• address-family—Configure an address-family (router, neighbor, vrf). See the address-family
(BGP) command for information.
• description description—Describes the neighbor. You can enter up to 80 characters including
spaces.
• disable-connected-check—Disables the connection verification for the directly connected peer.
Use the disable-connected-check command is to disable a check for an eBGP peer that is directly
connected to the local router. BGP triggers a connection check automatically for all eBGP peers that
are known to be single hop away, unless you disable this check with the disable-connected-check
