Configuring Autonomous System

To assign a routing domain for your network, configure the Autonomous System that uses Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). BGP shares routing information with other autonomous systems with the help of a globally unique 16-digit identification number that is known as the AS number (ASN). AS numbers are assigned by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).
