Description In the unicast/VPN-INSTANCE address family view, when adding a peer to an external
peer group without a specified AS number, specify an AS number for the peer at the
same time. While it is unnecessary when adding the peer to an internal peer group or
an external peer group with a specified AS number.
In the multicast/VPNv4 address family view, it is required that the peer to be added
exist and have been added to a peer group in the unicast address family (the peer can
be disabled).
In different address family views, a peer can be added to different peer groups and a
peer group can have different members.
