BGP Filters: Distribution and Prefix lists
\- PREFIX LIST: You define the PREFIX list, and apply the same prefix list to the BGP neighbor
The main difference between applying the DISTRIBUTE list and the PREFIX list to the BGP neighbor is:
- DISTRIBUTE LIST: You need to define the ACL, and apply it in the form of a Distribution List:
(config)#access-list 1 deny 172.12.25.0 0.0.0.255
(config-router)#neighbor 5.5.5.5 distribute-list 1 in
- PREFIX LIST: You define the PREFIX list, and apply the same prefix list to the BGP neighbor
(config-router)#neighbor 5.5.5.5 prefix-list PREF_LIST in
