Bug #11373
closedFRR: BGP neighbor remote-as external doesn't work
0%
Description
if you put `external` in the web GUI as the remote-as the generated configuration doesn't include a `neighbor <ip-address> remote-as external` statement. If you use a numeric ASN the config is generated correctly. Example below.
partial /var/etc/frr/frr.cfg with remote-as external:
frr defaults traditional
hostname pfSense.home
log syslog
service integrated-vtysh-config
!
router bgp 65076
bgp router-id 192.168.142.76
no bgp ebgp-requires-policy
neighbor 192.168.142.11 description vyos-11 on VLAN 142
Partial /var/etc/frr/frr.cfg with remote-as numeric:

hostname pfSense.home
log syslog
service integrated-vtysh-config
!
router bgp 65076
bgp router-id 192.168.142.76
no bgp ebgp-requires-policy
neighbor 192.168.142.11 remote-as 65011
neighbor 192.168.142.11 description vyos-11 on VLAN 142
