CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode
neighbor {IP address | peer-group-name} allowas-in number
○ Peer Group Name: 16 characters.
○ Number: 1 through 10.
Format: IP Address: A.B.C.D.
You must Configure Peer Groups before assigning it to an AS.
The lines shown in bold are the number of times ASN 65123 can appear in the AS path (allows–in 9).
To disable this feature, use the no neighbor allow-as in number command in CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode.

Filtering on an AS-Path Attribute
You can use the BGP attribute, AS_PATH, to manipulate routing policies.
The AS_PATH attribute contains a sequence of AS numbers representing the route’s path. As the route traverses an AS, the
ASN is prepended to the route. You can manipulate routes based on their AS_PATH to affect interdomain routing. By identifying
certain ASN in the AS_PATH, you can permit or deny routes based on the number in its AS_PATH.
AS-PATH ACLs use regular expressions to search AS_PATH values. AS-PATH ACLs have an “implicit deny.” This means that
routes that do not meet a deny or match filter are dropped.
To configure an AS-PATH ACL to filter a specific AS_PATH value, use these commands in the following sequence.
1. Assign a name to a AS-PATH ACL and enter AS-PATH ACL mode.
CONFIGURATION mode
ip as-path access-list as-path-name
2. Enter the parameter to match BGP AS-PATH for filtering.
CONFIG-AS-PATH mode
{deny | permit} filter parameter
This is the filter that is used to match the AS-path. The entries can be any format, letters, numbers, or regular expressions.
You can enter this command multiple times if multiple filters are desired.
For accepted expressions, refer to Regular Expressions as Filters.
3. Return to CONFIGURATION mode.
