bgp four-octet-as-support NOTE: Use it only if you support 4-Byte AS numbers or if you support AS4 number representation. If you are supporting 4-Byte ASNs, enable this command. Disable 4-Byte support and return to the default 2-Byte format by using the no bgp four-octet-as-support command. You cannot disable 4-Byte support if you currently have a 4-Byte ASN configured. Disabling 4-Byte AS numbers also disables ASDOT and ASDOT+ number representation. All AS numbers are displayed in ASPLAIN format. b Enable IPv4 multicast or IPv6 mode. CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode address-family [ipv4 | ipv6} vrf Use this command to enter BGP for IPv6 mode (CONF-ROUTER_BGPv6_AF). 2 Add a neighbor as a remote AS. CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode neighbor {ip-address | peer-group name} remote-as as-number • peer-group name: 16 characters • as-number: from 0 to 65535 (2 Byte) or from 1 to 4294967295 (4 Byte) or 0.1 to 65535.65535 (Dotted format) Formats: IP Address A.B.C.D You must Configure Peer Groups before assigning it a remote AS. 3 Enable the BGP neighbor. CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} no shutdown Examples of the show ip bgp Commands NOTE: When you change the configuration of a BGP neighbor, always reset it by entering the clear ip bgp * command in EXEC Privilege mode. To view the BGP configuration, enter show config in CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode. To view the BGP status, use the show ip bgp summary command in EXEC Privilege mode. The first example shows the summary with a 2-byte AS number displayed (in bold); the second example shows that the summary with a 4-byte AS number using the show ip bgp summary command (displays a 4-byte AS number in bold). The following example shows the show ip bgp summary command output (2-byte AS number displays).
