BGP should work with IP Services as a minimum.  

Have you enabled routing - "ip routing".

Hello,

check if the below command is available:

3560(config)#license boot level ipservices

[Iulian Vaideanu]

If "sh boot" outputs advipservices it doesn't necessarily mean that the switch is actually running that image (only that it has been configured to boot it with the next reload) - did "sh ver" say advipservices too?

ipbase won't do BGP - make sure the switch is actually running an ipservice image and you should be able to configure BGP...
