Enabling 4-byte AS number suppression
When a device that supports 4-byte AS numbers sends an Open message for session establishment, the
Optional parameters field of the message indicates that the AS number occupies four bytes—in the
range of 1 to 4294967295. If the peer device does not support 4-byte AS numbers (for examples, it
supports only 2-byte AS numbers), the session cannot be established.
After you enable the 4-byte AS number suppression function, the peer device can then process the Open
message even though it does not support 4-byte AS numbers, and the BGP session can be established.
If the peer device supports 4-byte AS numbers, do not enable the 4-byte AS number suppression function;
otherwise, the BGP peer relationship cannot be established.

Enabling quick reestablishment of direct EBGP session
When the link to a directly connected EBGP peer is down, the router, with quick EBGP session
reestablishment enabled, tears down the session to the peer, and then reestablishes a session
immediately. If the function is not enabled, the router does not tear down the session until the holdtime
times out. A route flap does not affect the EBGP session state when the quick EBGP session
reestablishment is disabled.
