It is tough to follow Howard and offer any kind of practical advice on
BGP... But I will throw my idea out on the assumption that you're
studying for the lab and just looking for options for "what if"
scenarios...

You could configure the existing AS 100 as a confederation AS within AS
200 by adding a single line:

router bgp 100
  bgp confederation identifier 200

That would also have the effect of advertising AS 200 to EBGP peers,
without reconfiguration of any existing neighbors. That assumes that you
aren't going to have new neighbors, that your neighbors will be
correctly configured for your "new" AS, etc.

An ISP currently on AS 100 will move to AS 200 next year, to avoid
reconfiguration for this year's customer's what would be best solution
to
minimize reconfiguration.

I think BGP Local-as would be the best way to handle this any other
ideas ?

thanks,
