DESCRIPTION
IP Address
Type the IP address of the interface on the peer BGP router.
AS Number
Type a number from 1 to 4294967295 in this field. Get the number from your service
provider.
Enable EBGP Multihop
Select this to allow the Zyxel Device to attempt BGP connections to external peers on
indirectly connected networks. eBGP neighbors must also perform multihop. Multihop is
not established if the only route to the multihop peer is a default route. This avoids loop
formation.
EBGP Maximum
Hops
Enter a maximum hop count from <1-255>. The default is 255.
