neighbor port

Description

This command allows setting a custom TCP port to communicate with the BGP neighbor.

When this configuration is applied for peer-group, all the neighbors that are part of peer-group will inherit this feature. Though the neighbor will inherit the configuration from peer-group, the neighbor-specific command, if configured, will take precedence.

This command will take effect only when user manually does the hard reset for the session.

The no form of this command allows a random TCP port to be selected for the communication with the BGP neighbor.
