The neighbor at the specified IP address inherits all the configuration of the peer
group. The members of a peer group must all be internal or external. If all the
members of the BGP peer group are external, they are allowed to have different AS
numbers.
There are two kinds of peer groups. For one kind, the remote AS is not set. Members
must be created with remote-as parameter before adding to the peer group. After a
neighbor is added to the peer group, there is no influence to its remote AS if we then
configure the peer group's remote AS. For the other kind, the peer group has been
set a remote AS number. A neighbor can be added to the peer group with no remote
AS. In this situation, it inherits the peer group's remote AS automatically, and its
remote AS changes with the changing of peer group's remote AS.
If a BGP peer belongs to a peer group, some attributes or actions can only be
configured from the peer group. The following is a list of them:
capability-of-prefix-list
next-hop-self
route-reflector-client
send-community
soft-reconfiguration-inbound
remove-private-as
allowas-in
holdtime
keepalive
unsuppress-map
filter-list for out direction
route-map for out direction
prefix-list for out direction
as-override
soo
On the contrary, some attributes or actions are allowed to be configured from both
the peer group and the member. If they are configured from the member, the setting
will overwrite the setting configured from the peer group.
Other attributes that can be set from an individual peer are as follows:
description,
filter-list for in direction,
route-map for in direction,
prefix-list for in direction,
ebgp-multihop,
shutdown,
activate,
weight.
default-originate.
update-source.
