XR 5.3.1 group regexp syntax

Hi,

 

in XR 4.3.2 I used to have :

group mygroup
 router bgp '.*'
  neighbor '.*'
  !
 !
end-group

 

to match all neighbors (IPv4 + IPv6)

but I can't make that work with XR 5.3.1 which seems to check the regexp on "neighbor" very hard:

myrtr(config-GRP-bgp)# neighbor '.*'
                                                ^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

the CLI suggests a regexp for IPv4 neighbors, which is accepted :

myrtr(config-GRP-bgp)#neighbor ?
  A.B.C.D or X:X::X  'RegExp': Neighbor address with strict dot/colon match. Eg. '[0-9]*\..*\..*\..*'

router bgp '.*'
  neighbor '[0-9]*\..*\..*\..*'
  !
 !

but it does not propose an IPv6 one and all I tried were rejected ;)

any idea to match IPv6 neighbors ?

 

thanks

Mik

Hi Mik,

the parser and flexcli team (thanks Sonia) responded to me that you could try this?

group BGPV6
 router bgp '.*'
  neighbor '::'
   address-family ipv6 unicast
   !
  !
 !
end-group

I haven't given this a twirl myself, so i dunno if that is gonna work :)

that was accepted by the cli at least :)

this really needs to be somewhere in the doc or the cli ;p

 

thanks Xander

thanks for the confirmation mik, I'll have it documented, besides this forum:)

Tested the following wildcard with version 5.3.3 and 7.3.3 and with different platforms, both cases it matches the IPv6 peer address.

neighbor '.*:.*::.*'
