Object

column r/w BgpAutonomousSystemNumber
An alternative local AS number that can be used to
establish a session with peers in this peer group.  This
is used when merging two ASs into a single AS.
              
For individual peers, this can be configured using
bgpPeerConfAltLocalAs.
              
A value of zero means 'not configured'.
              
If an alternative local AS number is configured then the
peering session can be established using the alternative
local AS instead of the primary local AS number specified
by bgpRmEntLocalAs.
              
Setting an alternative local AS number allows the primary
local AS number to be changed without reconfiguring the
peers in this peer group at the same time.  Later the
peers can be reconfigured to establish the session using
the new remote AS number and the alternative local AS
number can be reset to zero.
              
An alternative local AS number should only be used as an
intermediate step on one side of a BGP session.  Do not
configure an alternative local AS number on both sides of
a BGP session - configure the correct remote AS numbers
instead.
              
Use of alternative local AS numbers is not supported if
the router is a member of a confederation.
              
This field can be changed at any time.  However, if a peer
is configured to use the peer group field and the field is
changed while the peer is active, depending on the setting
of the bgpPeergrResetPeerOnCfgChange field, the peer
session may either be immediately reset, or the
configuration change is not applied until the peer session
is restarted.
