Description
This parameter specifies the IP address of the BGP neighbor.
By enabling this feature, BGP connections can be established between peers,
which are not directly connected.
Using this parameter, next Hop can be set as Self or Automatic. By setting this
field to Self, you can make the switch the next hop for all the routes that it
distributes to its peers.
This parameter specifies the maximum time interval between successive
updates between any two BGP peers. The allowed value ranges from 0 to
21845.
This parameter specifies the Hold time. This is the timer interval that a BGP will
wait, before it decides that a connection to the peer is torn down. The allowed
value ranges from 3 to 65535.
This parameter represents the remote autonomous system number. The allowed
value ranges from 0 to 65535.
