BGP on PanOS: allow route with own as number in as-path

daniel — Wed, 21 Jul 2021 10:51:34 GMT

hi,

i am new to panos and have problems in allowing a route with its own as number in as-path incoming from a peer. looks like the route is not accepted as a loop prevention but it is just the fact that the as number is used twice as two companies connect together with private as numbers. what do i have to do in order to accept the route like allowas-in command on cisco.

else i have to force the other side to do a remove-private-as as we are talking about as number 65000

Hi there,

The feature is available in PAN-OS 10 but requires you to enable the Advanced Routing Engine, and in doing so means you can not longer participate in any IGPs just BGP.

Assuming you happy to jump to version 10 and your immediate environment just requires BGP, you can find the allowas-in option under AFI Profile which you apply to BGP peers.
