Information
You must enable bgp four-octet-as-support before enabling this feature. If you disable
four-octet-support after using dot or dot+ format, the AS Numbers revert to asplain text.
When you apply an asnotation, it is reflected in the running-configuration. If you change the notation
type, the running-config is updated dynamically and the new notation is shown.
