Usage
Information
If a local-as is configured, BGP does not allow for the configuration of BGP confederation. Similarly, if
BGP confederation is configured, then BGP does not allow the configuration of local-as.
This command automatically restarts the neighbor session for the configuration to take effect.

Parameters
ip-address Enter the IP address of the neighbor in dotted decimal format.
peer-group-name Enter the name of the peer group.
maximum Enter a number as the maximum number of prefixes allowed for this BGP router.
The range is from 1 to 4294967295.
threshold (OPTIONAL) Enter a number to be used as a percentage of the maximum value.
When the number of prefixes reaches this percentage of the maximum value, the
E-Series software sends a message. The range is from 1 to 100 percent. The
default is 75.
warning-only (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword warning-only to set the router to send a log
message when the maximum value is reached. If this parameter is not set, the
router stops peering when the maximum number of prefixes is reached.
