    Virtual Private Cloud:CreateBgpGroup

    Last Updated:Aug 29, 2024

    Creates a BGP group for a virtual border router (VBR).

    Operation description

    You can connect a VBR to a data center through BGP. Each BGP group is associated with a VBR. You can add a BGP peer that needs to communicate with a VBR to a BGP group and advertise the BGP network in the VBR.

    BGP groups are used to simplify BGP configurations. You can add BGP peers that use the same configurations to one BGP group. Before you start, you must create a BGP group with the requested autonomous system number (ASN).

    When you call this operation, take note of the following limits:

    • You can specify only the data center that is connected to the VBR through an Express Connect circuit as a BGP peer.
    • VBRs support only BGP-4.
    • You can create at most eight BGP peers for each VBR.
    • Each BGP peer supports at most 110 dynamic routes.
    • The ASN of Alibaba Cloud is 45104. You can specify a 2-byte or 4-byte ASN for the data center.

    Debugging

    OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer.

    Authorization information

    The following table shows the authorization information corresponding to the API. The authorization information can be used in the Action policy element to grant a RAM user or RAM role the permissions to call this API operation. Description:

    • Operation: the value that you can use in the Action element to specify the operation on a resource.
    • Access level: the access level of each operation. The levels are read, write, and list.
    • Resource type: the type of the resource on which you can authorize the RAM user or the RAM role to perform the operation. Take note of the following items:
      • The required resource types are displayed in bold characters.
      • If the permissions cannot be granted at the resource level, All Resources is used in the Resource type column of the operation.
    • Condition Key: the condition key that is defined by the cloud service.
    • Associated operation: other operations that the RAM user or the RAM role must have permissions to perform to complete the operation. To complete the operation, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform the associated operations.

    Request parameters

    ParameterTypeRequiredDescriptionExample
    RegionIdstringYes

    The region ID of the VBR.

    You can call the DescribeRegions operation to query the most recent region list.

    		cn-shanghai
    RouterIdstringYes

    The ID of the VBR.

    		vbr-bp1ctxy813985gkuk****
    NamestringNo

    The name of the BGP group.

    The name must be 2 to 128 characters in length, and can contain letters, digits, periods (.), underscores (_), and hyphens (-). The name must start with a letter.

    		test
    DescriptionstringNo

    The description of the BGP group.

    The description must be 2 to 256 characters in length. It must start with a letter and cannot start with http:// or https://.

    		BGP
    LocalAsnlongNo

    The custom ASN on the Alibaba Cloud side. Valid values:

    • 45104
    • 64512~65534
    • 4200000000~4294967294
    Note 65025 is reserved by Alibaba Cloud. By default, Alibaba Cloud uses 45104 as LocalAsn. If you use custom LocalAsn in multi-line access scenarios, loops in BGP may occur.
    		45104
    PeerAsnlongYes

    The ASN of the gateway device in the data center.

    		1****
    AuthKeystringNo

    The authentication key of the BGP group.

    		!PWZ2****
    IsFakeAsnbooleanNo

    Specifies whether to use a fake ASN. Valid values:

    • false (default)
    • true
    Note A router that runs BGP typically belongs to only one AS. If you need to replace an existing AS with a new AS and you cannot immediately modify BGP configurations, you can use fake ASNs to ensure service continuity.
    		true
    ClientTokenstringNo

    The client token that is used to ensure the idempotence of the request.

    You can use the client to generate the token, but you must make sure that the token is unique among different requests. The token can contain only ASCII characters.

    Note If you do not specify this parameter, the system automatically uses the request ID as the client token. The request ID may be different for each request.
    		123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426655440000
    IpVersionstringNo

    The IP version. Valid values:

    • IPv4: This is the default value.
    • IPv6: IPv6 is supported only if the VBR for which you want to create the BGP group has IPv6 enabled.
    		IPv4
    RouteQuotaintegerNo

    The maximum number of routes supported by a BGP peer. Default value: 110.

    		110

    Response parameters

    ParameterTypeDescriptionExample
    object
