/AWS1/CL_EC2ROUTESERVERBGPOP00

The BGP configuration options requested for a route server peer.

CONSTRUCTOR

IMPORTING

Required arguments:

iv_peerasn TYPE /AWS1/EC2LONG /AWS1/EC2LONG

The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Autonomous System Number (ASN) for the appliance. Valid values are from 1 to 4294967295. We recommend using a private ASN in the 64512–65534 (16-bit ASN) or 4200000000–4294967294 (32-bit ASN) range.

Optional arguments:

iv_peerlivenessdetection TYPE /AWS1/EC2ROUTESERVERPEERLIVE00 /AWS1/EC2ROUTESERVERPEERLIVE00

The requested liveness detection protocol for the BGP peer.

  • bgp-keepalive: The standard BGP keep alive mechanism (RFC4271) that is stable but may take longer to fail-over in cases of network impact or router failure.

  • bfd: An additional Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) protocol (RFC5880) that enables fast failover by using more sensitive liveness detection.

Defaults to bgp-keepalive.

Queryable Attributes

PeerAsn

The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Autonomous System Number (ASN) for the appliance. Valid values are from 1 to 4294967295. We recommend using a private ASN in the 64512–65534 (16-bit ASN) or 4200000000–4294967294 (32-bit ASN) range.
