NAME

Infoblox::Grid::Member::BGP::AS - BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) Autonomous System (AS) object.

DESCRIPTION

An Infoblox::BGP::AS object represents a BGP Autonomous System configured at the grid member level.

CONSTRUCTOR

 my $bgp_as = Infoblox::Grid::Member::BGP::AS->new(
     as              => $num,                            # Optional / Default value is undefined
     keepalive       => $num,                            # Optional / Default value is 4
     holddown        => $num,                            # Optional / Default value is 16
     neighbors       => [ $neighbor1, $neighbor2, ... ], # Optional / Default value is empty
 );

MODULE METHODS

The following functions can be applied to a BGP AS object.

Infoblox::Grid::Member->bgp_as( )

Use this function to specify BGP Autonomous Systems for the grid member. See Infoblox::Grid::Member->bgp_as() for parameters and return values.

Example

 #Construct a BGP neighbor
 my $neighbor = Infoblox::Grid::Member::BGP::Neighbor->new(
     neighbor_ip          => "172.16.0.1",
     remote_as           => 1234,
     interface           => "LAN_HA",
 );

 #Construct a BGP AS
 my $autonomous_system = Infoblox::Grid::Member::BGP::AS->new(
     as          => 269,
     keepalive       => 4,
     holddown        => 16,
     neighbors       => [ $neighbor ]
 );

 # Configure BGP on the Grid Member object
 my $response = $Grid_Member->bgp_as([$as]);

METHODS

This section describes all the methods that can be used to configure and retrieve the attribute values of an Infoblox::BGP::AS object.

as( )

Use this method to set or retrieve the number of this AS.

A valid AS number is required to advertise to neighbors defined in this AS.

Include the specified parameter to set the attribute value. Omit the parameter to retrieve the attribute value.

Parameter

An AS number is a 16-bit integer from 1 to 65535.

Returns

If you specified a parameter, the method returns true when the modification succeeds, and returns false when the operation fails.

If you did not specify a parameter, the method returns the attribute value.

Example

 #Get AS number
 my $as_number = $autonomous_system->as();
 #Modify AS number
 $autonomous_system->as(300);

keepalive( )

Use this method to set or retrieve the AS keepalive timer.

Include the specified parameter to set the attribute value. Omit the parameter to retrieve the attribute value.

Parameter

The number of seconds for the keepalive timer. The valid value is from 1 to 21845 seconds.

Returns

If you specified a parameter, the method returns true when the modification succeeds, and returns false when the operation fails.

If you did not specify a parameter, the method returns the attribute value.

Example

 #Get AS keepalive timer
 my $keepalive = $autonomous_system->keepalive();
 #Modify AS keepalive timer
 $autonomous_system->keepalive(3600);

holddown( )

Use this method to set or retrieve the AS hold down timer.

Include the specified parameter to set the attribute value. Omit the parameter to retrieve the attribute value.

Parameter

The number of seconds for the hold down timer. The valid value is from 3 to 65535 seconds.

Returns

If you specified a parameter, the method returns true when the modification succeeds, and returns false when the operation fails.

If you did not specify a parameter, the method returns the attribute value.

Example

 #Get Autonomous System hold down timer
 my $holddown = $autonomous_system->holddown();
 #Modify Autonomous System hold down timer
 $autonomous_system->holddown(3600);

neighbors( )

Use this method to set or retrieve the BGP neighbors for the Infoblox::BGP::AS object.

Include the specified parameter to set the attribute value. Omit the parameter to retrieve the attribute value.

Parameter

The valid value is an array reference that contains Infoblox::Grid::Member::BGP::Neighbor object(s).

Returns

If you specified a parameter, the method returns true when the modification succeeds, and returns false when the operation fails.

If you did not specify a parameter, the method returns the attribute value.

Example

 #Get AS neighbor list
 my $neighbors = $autonomous_system->neighbors();
 #Modify AS neighbors
 $autonomous_system->neighbors( [ $neighbor1, $neighbor2 ] );
