AS Number Migration
With this feature you can transparently change the AS number of an entire BGP network and ensure that the routes are
propagated throughout the network while the migration is in progress.
When migrating one AS to another, perhaps combining ASs, an eBGP network may lose its routing to an iBGP if the ASN
changes. Migration can be difficult as all the iBGP and eBGP peers of the migrating network must be updated to maintain
network reachability. Essentially, Local-AS provides a capability to the BGP speaker to operate as if it belongs to "virtual" AS
network besides its physical AS network.
The following illustration shows a scenario where Router A, Router B, and Router C belong to AS 100, 200, and 300,
respectively. Router A acquired Router B; Router B has Router C as its customer. When Router B is migrating to Router A, it
must maintain the connection with Router C without immediately updating Router C’s configuration. Local-AS allows this
behavior to happen by allowing Router B to appear as if it still belongs to Router B’s old network (AS 200) as far as
communicating with Router C is concerned.
