Multiple peers in the same YABGP process

[adnaansiddiqi]

Hi, thank you so much for creating the YABGP platform. I was having a look at the config file and it says that in order to have multiple peers a different config file (config_file) is required. I couldn't find the location of this. I was trying to set up multiple MPLS L3VPN peers and also EVPN (L2VPN) - all need to be in the same process. thank you in advance.

I have the same problem. The neither documentation nor sample config help with this…

Hi @adnaansiddiqi @rafamiga ,

I recommend initiating multiple yabgp processes, as there is a one-to-one mapping between a yabgp process and a router's TCP connection.
In our commercial deployments, we typically build a management platform to orchestrate these yabgp 'probes.'

Could you let me know which document or configuration file you are referring to? I’d like to clarify any potential ambiguities.

Thanks.

I believe just adding a disclaimer that config_file and/or remote_* directives in [bgp] section work for just only one BGP peer would be sufficient (for the sample config file, that is). And similar information should be added to Configuration section at https://yabgp.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial.html#configuration – as a note perhaps.
