Configuring BGP4 multipath load sharing
The local-as command is available under the “global BGP” CLI level and “address- family ipv4
unicast vrf” CLI level.
To set the local as number for a VRF, enter commands such as the following.
Brocade(config-bgp)#address-family ipv4 unicast vrf vrf-name
Brocade(config-bgp)#local-as num
Syntax: [no] local-as num
The num parameter specifies a local AS number in the range 1 – 4294967295. It has no default.
AS numbers 64512 – 65535 are the well-known private BGP4 AS numbers and are not advertised
to the Internet community.
The configuration takes effect immediately and the BGP VRF instance is reset. All BGP peering
within the VRF is reset, and take the new AS number.
The local AS number for the VRF instance, if configured, is displayed in the show running-config and
show ip bgp config command output.
Enter the show ip bgp config command:
Brocade#show ip bgp config
Current BGP configuration:
router bgp

neighbor 10.10.10.10 remote-as 200
