PropertyDescription
name (string; Default: )Name of the BGP connection
connect (yes | no; Default: yes)Whether to allow the router to initiate the connection.
listen (yes | no; Default: yes)Whether to listen for incoming connections.
local - a group of parameters associated with the local side of the connection

.address (IPv4/6; Default: ::)Local connection address.

.port(integer [0..65535]; Default:179 )Local connection port.

.role(ebgp | ebgp-customer | ebgp-peer | ebgp-provider | ebgp-rs | ebgp-rs-client | ibgp | ibgp-rr | ibgp-rr-client; Default: )BGP role, in most common scenarios it should be set to iBGP or eBGP. More information on BGP roles can be found in the corresponding RFC draft https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-idr-bgp-open-policy/?include_text=1)

.ttl (integer [1..255]; Default:)Time To Live (hop limit) that will be recorded in sent TCP packets.
remote - a group of parameters associated with the remote side of the connection



.address (IPv4/6; Default: ::)Remote address used to connect and/or listen to.
.port(integer [0..65535]; Default:179 )Local connection port.
.as(integer []; Default: )Remote AS number. If not specified BGP will determine remote AS automatically from the OPEN message.
.allowallowed-as()List of remote AS numbers that are allowed to connect. Useful for dynamic peer configuration.
.ttl (integer [1..255]; Default:)Acceptable minimum Time To Live, the hop limit for this TCP connection. For example, if 'ttl=255' then only single-hop neighbors will be able to establish the connection. This property only affects EBGP peers.
tcp-md5-key (string; Default: )The key used to authenticate the connection with TCP MD5 signature as described in RFC 2385. If not specified, authentication is not used.
templates (name[,name]; Default: default)List of the template names, to inherit parameters from. Useful for dynamic BGP peers.
