Element

 

Description

 

 

 

AS Number

 

The number of the AS containing BGP neighbors. Internal neighbors have

 

 

 

 

the same AS number as the network of the selected router. External

 

 

 

 

neighbors have a different AS number.

 

 

 

IP Address

 

The IP addresses of the hosts that are neighbors of the router. BGP neighbors

 

 

 

 

exchange routing information with each other whenever changes to the

 

 

 

 

routing table are detected.

 

 

 

 

When you define BGP neighbors, the IP addresses cannot belong to an

 

 

 

 

interface on the selected router. In addition, you cannot define the same IP

 

 

 

 

address in more than one AS.

 

 

 

 

Enter one or more addresses or network/host objects, or click Select to

 

 

 

 

display an Object Selectors, page F-593.

 

 

 

 

If the host you want is not listed, click the Create button in the selector to

 

 

 

 

display the Network/Host Dialog Box, page F-477. From here you can

 

 

 

 

define a network/host object.

 

 

 

 

Note To remove a host from the list of BGP neighbors, select it from the

 

 

 

 

Hosts field, then click Delete.
