Correct answer & explanation
Set bgp confederation identifier
First, you assign the confederation identifier (main AS). Then you define the member sub-AS numbers. Next, you configure eBGP peering between sub-ASes using the sub-AS numbers. After that, you ensure iBGP is configured within each sub-AS. Finally, you verify confederation peers with show ip bgp neighbors.
