2. Otherwise, if the neighbor uses a session group or address family group, the configuration value is 
obtained from the session group or address family group. If the address family group or session 
group has a parent and an item is configured on the parent, the parent configuration is used. If the 
item is not configured on the parent but is configured on the parent of the parent, the configuration 
of the parent of the parent is used, and so on. In the example that follows, the advertisement interval 
is configured on a neighbor group and a session group and the advertisement interval value being 
used is from the session group:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router bgp 140
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp)# session-group AS_2
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp-sngrp)# advertisement-interval 15
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp-sngrp)# exit
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp)# neighbor-group AS_1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp-nbrgrp)# advertisement-interval 20
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp-nbrgrp)# exit
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp)# neighbor 192.168.0.1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp-nbr)# remote-as 1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp-nbr)# use session-group AS_2
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bgp-nbr)# use neighbor-group AS_1
The following output from the show bgp neighbors command shows that the advertisement interval 
used is 15 seconds:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# show bgp neighbors 192.168.0.1
BGP neighbor is 192.168.0.1, remote AS 1, local AS 140, external link
