zebra ipv6 bgp peering

[Pat Jensen]

I am successfully peering with a Cisco router (probably a 7000 series) at
Sprint with Zebra (on both FreeBSD and OpenBSD).
Was fairly easy to setup since I knew a little bit about setting up BGP on
IOS .. the commands are almost the same.
The only problem I had was I botched up Sprint's ASN .. I couldn't start a
session successfully.

My configuration is:

router bgp 65535
 bgp router-id 10.0.0.1
!
ipv6 bgp network  3ffe:2900:e006::/48
ipv6 bgp neighbor 3ffe:2900:e:6::1 remote-as 65535
!
ipv6 access-list  all permit any

Hope it helps!
