Task 1
After merging the three ASes (Lab 123/124), the administrator of AS 50 noticed that prefixes arriving on R5 carry the AS 123 in the AS_PATH attribute. Before AS 50 configure their R5 router to peer with AS 123, the administrator asked you to remove AS 123 from the AS_PATH attribute.

Notice!
The option 'no-prepend' removes the local-as numbers (look at lab 124). The option 'replace-as' strips off the original AS number when updates are sent to the BGP neighbor configured to use the local-as number.
