precedence over the neighbor next-hop-self command.
ip-address
(OPTIONAL) Enter the IP address of the neighbor in dotted decimal format.
peer-group-name
(OPTIONAL) Enter the name of the peer group.
maximum
Enter a number as the maximum number of prefixes allowed for this BGP router.
Range: 1 to 4294967295.
threshold (OPTIONAL) Enter a number to be used as a percentage of the maximum value.
When the number of prefixes reaches this percentage of the
maximum value,
FTOS sends a message.
Range: 1 to 100 percent.
Default: 75
warning-only (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword warning-only to set the router to send a log
message when the maximum value is reached. If this parameter is not set, the
router stops peering when the maximum number of prefixes is reached.
