28.15 set as-path

Use this command to modify an autonomous system path for a route.

Use the no parameter with this command to disable this function.

Use the set as-path command to specify an autonomous system path. By specifying the length

of the AS-Path, the router influences the best path selection by a neighbor. Use the prepend

parameter with this command to prepend an AS path string to routes increasing the AS path

length.

To use the set as-path command, you must first have a match clause. Match and set commands

set the conditions for redistributing routes from one routing protocol to another. The match

command specifies the match criteria under which redistribution is allowed for the current

route-map. The set command specifies the set redistribution actions to be performed, if the

match criteria are met.

If the packets do not match any of the defined criteria, they are routed through the normal

routing process.

Note:

This command is valid for BGP only.
