C3750X can't enable BGP, ver 12.2(55)SE1

I try to enable bgp on our C3750 that 12.2(55)SE1. It has "ipbase" license. And I am getting the following error message when trying to enable bgp

flex_3750_172_24_43_(config)#router bgp 2000
Protocol not in this image

According to the documentation, "ipbase" license should allow BGP. Do I need to upgrade to better version?

The "show version" output as follows:

BGP is not supported on IP base only a few routing protocols. You need to upgrade to IP Services to get BGP.

Table in link shows what is supported.

Hi Pat Liu,

Phillip is correct. ip base on 3750X only supports static, and some routing protocols, but limited functionalities.

For an overview of the 3 diff licenses used in L3 switches now:

LAN-base - L2 functionalities only

IP-base - has L3, but Static, RIP, Stub EIGRP, OSPF with limited routes, Stub PIM, complete QoS,Security

IP-services - has all of IP-base, plus full L3 functionalities just like in routers (OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, ISIS, PbR, EEM, VRF-lite, etc.)

Refer to this document for the full documentation and license upgrade procedures.
