Parameters
group-name
: Specifies a peer group by its name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 47 characters. The peer
group must have been created.
ip-address
: Specifies a peer by its IP address. The peer must have been created.
ipv6-address
: Specifies a peer by its IPv6 address. The peer must have been created.
number
: Specifies the number of times for which the local AS number can appear, in the range of 1 to
10. The default number is 1. If the number of times for which the local AS number appears in a route is
more than the specified number, BGP considers that a routing loop occurs and discards the route.
Usage guidelines
By default, BGP does not receive routes that contain the local AS number in the AS_PATH attribute to
avoid routing loops. However, in certain network environments (a Hub&Spoke network in MPLS L3VPN,
for example), the AS_PATH attribute of a route from a peer must be allowed to contain the local AS
number. Otherwise, the route cannot be advertised correctly.
Examples
# In BGP IPv4 unicast address family view, configure the number of times the local AS number can
appear in AS_PATH attribute of routes from peer group
