Hello Experts,<br />
<br />
Can someone please provide me with sample documentation links how how to configure a Cisco router to be compatible with the new 4 Byte AS?<br />
<br />
Basically, I would like to setup a lab showing how to make a 2 byte ASN work with a 4 Byte AS?<br />
<br />
Additionally, would is needed configure a router for a 4 Byte AS with a sample configuration.<br />
<br />
Cheers<br />

Cisco BGP 4-Byte ASN compatibility with 2-Byte ASN

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
