Description

The Set-BgpPeer cmdlet updates the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) peer configuration. This cmdlet returns error information if errors occur while modifying the BGP peer configuration.

Examples

Example 1: Update the BGP peer configuration for the specified neighbor

PS C:\>Set-BgpPeer -Name "TenantSite1" -PeeringMode Automatic -PassThru
PeerName            LocalIPAddress      PeerIPAddress       PeerASN             OperationMode       ConnectivityStatus
--------            --------------      -------------       -------             -------------       ------------------
TenantSite1      192.168.1.10        10.1.1.10           64512               Server              Connecting

This command updates and modifies the BGP peer configuration for the specified neighbor.

Example 2: Update and modify the BGP peer configuration and prompt the user for confirmation

PS C:\>Set-BgpPeer -Name "TenantSite1" -OperationMode Mixed -PeeringMode Automatic -PassThru
Confirm
BGP peering session is active for peer TenantSite1. Do you want to apply settings and restart peering? 
 [Y] Yes  [N] No  [S] Suspend  [?] Help (default is "Y"): y

PeerName            LocalIPAddress      PeerIPAddress       PeerASN             OperationMode       ConnectivityStatus
--------            --------------      -------------       -------             -------------       ------------------
TenantSite1      192.168.1.10        10.1.1.10           64512               Mixed               Connecting

This command prompts the user for confirmation and upon confirmation, updates and modifies the BGP peer configuration for the specified neighbor, which is active.

Example 3: Update and modify the BGP peer configuration for the specified neighbor

PS C:\>Set-BgpPeer -RoutingDomain "Rd_002" -Name "Tenant1" -PeerASN 64515  -PassThru
Confirm
BGP peering session is active for RedTenant1 for routing domain Rd_002. Do you want to apply settings and restart
peering? 
[Y] Yes  [N] No  [S] Suspend  [?] Help (default is "Y"):

PeerName            LocalIPAddress      PeerIPAddress       PeerASN             OperationMode       ConnectivityStatus
--------            --------------      -------------       -------             -------------       ------------------
Tenant1          14.1.1.10           192.168.1.2         64515               Mixed               Connecting

This command prompts the user for confirmation and upon confirmation, updates and modifies the BGP peer configuration for the specified neighbor of a specified routing domain in multi-tenant environment.
