neighbor port

Description

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.
