Changing or clearing the local AS number when VPLS auto-discovery is enabled
When VPLS auto-discovery is enabled on the device and the user wants to clear or change the BGP
local AS number, the user must first disable VPLS auto-discovery, then clear the local AS number.
When the user attempts to clear or change the local AS number while VPLS auto-discovery is
enabled, the console displays the following message:
Brocade(config-bgp)# no router bgp
Error: VPLS instances with BGP auto-discovery exist, remove auto-discovery
configuration first!
To clear the BGP local AS number when VPLS auto-discovery is enabled, enter commands such as
the following.
Brocade(config)# router mpls
Brocade(config-mpls)# vpls c1 10
Brocade(config-mpls-vpls-c1)# no auto-discovery
Brocade(config-mpls-vpls-c1)# router bgp
Brocade(config-bgp)# no local-as 10
