Synopsis 

This module provides configuration management of global BGP parameters on devices running Enterprise SONiC Distribution by Dell Technologies.

Note

This module has a corresponding action plugin.

Parameters 

Parameter	Comments
config list / elements=dictionary	Specifies the BGP-related configuration.
as_notation string	Specify the AS number notation format Option supported on Enterprise-Sonic releases 4.4.0 and higher. Choices: `"asdot"` `"asdot+"`
bestpath dictionary	Configures the BGP best-path.
as_path dictionary	Configures the as-path values.
confed boolean	Configures the confed values of as-path. Choices: `false` `true`
ignore boolean	Configures the ignore values of as-path. Choices: `false` `true`
multipath_relax boolean	Configures the multipath_relax values of as-path. Choices: `false` `true`
multipath_relax_as_set boolean	Configures the multipath_relax_as_set values of as-path. Choices: `false` `true`
compare_routerid boolean	Configures the compare_routerid. Choices: `false` `true`
med dictionary	Configures the med values.
always_compare_med boolean	Allows comparing meds from different neighbors if set to true Choices: `false` `true`
confed boolean	Configures the confed values of med. Choices: `false` `true`
missing_as_worst boolean	Configures the missing_as_worst values of as-path. Choices: `false` `true`
bgp_as string / required	Specifies the BGP autonomous system (AS) number to configure on the device.
log_neighbor_changes boolean	Enables/disables logging neighbor up/down and reset reason. Choices: `false` `true`
max_med dictionary	Configure max med and its parameters
on_startup dictionary	On startup time and max-med value
med_val integer	on startup med value
timer integer	Configures on startup time
router_id string	Configures the BGP routing process router-id value.
rt_delay integer	Time in seconds to wait before processing route-map changes. Range is 0-600. 0 disables the timer and changes to route-map will not be updated.
timers dictionary	Adjust routing timers
holdtime integer	Configures hold-time
keepalive_interval integer	Configures keepalive-interval
vrf_name string	Specifies the VRF name. Default: `"default"`
state string	Specifies the operation to be performed on the BGP process that is configured on the device. In case of merged, the input configuration is merged with the existing BGP configuration on the device. In case of deleted, the existing BGP configuration is removed from the device. In case of replaced, the existing configuration of the specified BGP AS will be replaced with provided configuration. In case of overridden, the existing BGP configuration will be overridden with the provided configuration. Choices: `"merged"` ← (default) `"deleted"` `"replaced"` `"overridden"`
