Overriding the Local AS Number
By default, a BGP speaker that issues an open message to initiate a peer-to-peer
session uses the AS number that you set with the Local AS parameter.
You can use Site Manager to include a different AS number (overriding the
default) or use the AS number you specified in the Local AS parameter.
Using Site Manager
Specifying a Maximum Update Size
