bgp router-config

Use the (device-config) or (profile-config) instance to configure BGP router related parameters.

To navigate to the BGP router configuration instance, in the device-config mode, use the following commands:
<DEVICE>(config)#self
<DEVICE>(config-device-<MAC>)#router bgp
<DEVICE>config-device <MAC>-router-bgp)#
<DEVICE>config-device <MAC>-router-bgp)#?
