Usage Guidelines

The AS number is a 4-byte AS number in either the ASPLAIN or the ASDOT format as described in RFC 5396, Textual Representation of Autonomous System (AS) Numbers.

Changes made to the parameters of a peer group are applied to all neighbors in the peer group.

After you enter this command, the switch automatically disables and enables all neighbors in the peer group before the change takes effect.

Example

The following example configures the remote AS number for the peer group outer and its neighbors using the ASPLAIN 4-byte AS number format:

configure bgp peer-group outer remote-AS-number 65536

The following example configures the remote AS number for the peer group abc and its neighbors using the ASDOT 4-byte AS number format:

configure bgp peer-group abc remote-AS-number 1.10
