Hello all, I was reading Cisco command reference on BGP and came across the following configuration example. I believe that we do not need the remove-private-as command in this example. However, it is there.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Replace-AS Configuration Example The following example strips private autonomous system 64512 from outbound routing updates for the 172.20.1.1 neighbor and replaces it with autonomous system 600: router bgp 64512 address-family ipv4 unicast neighbor 172.20.1.1 local-as 600 no-prepend replace-as neighbor 172.20.1.1 remove-private-as ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The way I understand replace-as is that it only prepends the LOCAL-AS in the outbound routing updates instead of pre-pending both the autonomous system (i.e one from the BGP router command and one with LOCAL-AS). Can somebody help me understand as to why we need both the commands here. Suresh
