Technical Tip: How to Remove private AS in BGP

Private AS numbers should not be advertised into the Internet.

The private AS numbers must be removed from the AS path before the customer BGP routes are advertised to other service providers.

This can be achieved by command 'remove-private-as'.

Sample Configuration:

# config router bgp  

    set as <local-as-value>  

# config neighbor

    edit "neighbor-id"

        set remove-private-as enable

       set remote-as <remote-as-value>

    next

end
