Description: Gives finer control of the sender-side loop detection configuration provided by bgpPeergrDisableSenderLoopDetect.

By default, BGP performs sender side loop detection. That is, it will not advertise a route to a peer if the AS-Path of the route already contains the peer's AS number. A peer would typically discard such routes, so this is normally a useful optimization.

However, the peer may be configured to accept such routes (see bgpPeergrAfiSafiAllowLocalAs). In this case it is necessary to disable sender-side loop detection.

When bgpPeergrDisableSenderLoopDetect is 'true', BGP disables sender-side loop detection for those address families for which bgpPeergrAfiSafiDisSndLpDetect is 'true'.

When bgpPeergrDisableSenderLoopDetect is 'false', sender-side loop detection is not disable for any address families.

If the value of this object is changed while a peer in the peer group is active, BGP will check for any routes that need to be advertised or withdrawn as a result of the change.
