BGP Commands

ip bgp autonomous-system

Configures the Autonomous System (AS) number for this router. This number identifies this BGP speaker
(this router) instance to other BGP routers. The AS number for a BGP speaker determines whether it is an
internal or an external peer in relation to other BGP speakers. BGP routers in the same AS are internal
peers while BGP routers in different ASs are external peers. BGP routers in the same AS exchange differ-
ent routing information with each other than they exchange with BGP routers in external ASs. BGP speak-
ers append their AS number to routes passing through them; this sequence of AS numbers is known as a
route's AS path.
