Allowing an AS Number to Appear in its Own AS
Path
This command allows you to set the number of times a particular AS number can occur in the AS path.
The allow-as feature permits a BGP speaker to allow the ASN to be present for a specified number of times in
the update received from the peer, even if that ASN matches its own. The AS-PATH loop is detected if the
local ASN is present more than the specified number of times in the command.
• Allow this neighbor ID to use the AS path the specified number of times.
