Usage Information
Congure your system to accept 4-byte formats before entering a 4-byte AS number. All routers in the
Confederation must be 4-byte or 2-byte identied routers. You cannot have a mix of 2-byte and 4-byte identied
routers. The autonomous system number you congure in this command is visible to the EBGP neighbors. Each
autonomous system is fully meshed and contains a few connections to other autonomous systems. The next-hop
(MED) and local preference information is preserved throughout the confederation. The system accepts
confederation EBGP peers without a LOCAL_PREF attribute. OS10 sends AS_CONFED_SET and accepts
AS_CONFED_SET and AS_CONF_SEQ. The no version of this command deletes the confederation conguration.
Example (Identier)
OS10(conf-router-bgp-2)# confederation identifier 1
Example (Peers)
OS10(conf-router-bgp-2)# confederation peers 2
Supported Releases 10.3.0E or later

OS10(conf-router-bgp-2)# client-to-client reflection
