Please allow me to correct myself. I haven't had more than 4 hours a
night for the past week and haven't had any coffee this morning.
The AS Path List reads from right to left with the rightmost side being
the origin.
The AS number is always prepended to the END of the list or the
left-hand side.

The AS Path List reads from right to left with the leftmost side being
the origin.
The AS number is prepended to the beginning of the list which is the
left-hand side.

Subject: BGP as-path prepend confusion !
Hi group,
I am confused by the command "set as-path prepend" as the new AS #
should be
appended instead of prepended to the originated AS #, right ? My
assumption
of prepend is that new AS # should be added to the left of the AS-Path.
