Enabling 4-byte AS number suppression
BGP supports 4-byte AS numbers. The 4-byte AS number occupies four bytes, in the range of 1 to
4294967295. By default, a device sends an Open message to the peer device for session
establishment. The Open message indicates that the device supports 4-byte AS numbers. If the peer
device supports 2-byte AS numbers instead of 4-byte AS numbers, the session cannot be
established. To resolve this issue, enable the 4-byte AS number suppression feature. The device
then sends an Open message to inform the peer that it does not support 4-byte AS numbers, so the
BGP session can be established.
If the peer device supports 4-byte AS numbers, do not enable the 4-byte AS number suppression
feature. Otherwise, the BGP session cannot be established.
