A device can be configured so that the AS_PATH check function for routes learned from a specific location is disabled, and routes that contain the recipient BGP speaker's AS number are not rejected.
Procedure
-
Enter the
configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.
device# configure terminal
-
Enter the
router bgp command to enable BGP routing.
device(config)# router bgp
-
Enter the
address-family ipv4 unicast command to enter BGP IPv4 address family unicast configuration mode.
device(config-bgp-router)# address-family ipv4 unicast
-
Enter the
neighbor allowas-in command and specify a
number to disable the BGP AS_PATH check function, and specify the number of times that the AS path of a received route may contain the recipient BGP speaker's AS number and still be accepted.
device(config-bgp-ipv6u)# neighbor 10.1.1.1 allowas-in 3
Example
The following example specifies that the AS path of a received route may contain the recipient BGP speaker's AS number three times and still be accepted.
device# configure terminal
device(config)# router bgp
device(config-bgp-router)# address-family ipv4 unicast
device(config-bgp-ipv4u)# neighbor 10.1.1.1 allowas-in 3
