add as many peers as required.

hold-time ( time ) - specifies the BGP Hold Time value to use when negotiating with peers.
According to BGP specifications, if router does not receive successive KEEPALIVE and/or
UPDATE and/or NOTIFICATION messages within the period specified in the Hold Time field of
the OPEN message, then the BGP connection to the peer will be closed
in-filter ( name ; default: "" ) - name of the routing filter that is applied to incoming routing update
messages

BGP process will negotiate the keepalive time with the neighbour upon connection establishment
multihop ( yes | no ; default: no ) - if enabled, allows BGP sessions, even when the neighbour is

multi-hop peer's address is the default route (0.0.0.0/0)
