/sys$common/syshlp/NCLHELP.HLB  —  set  routing  egp_group
    set  [node node-id] routing egp group group-name ...

    Modifies the attributes of a routing egp group entity, which
    defines a set of systems in the same autonomous system with which
    this system may exchange EGP messages.  The modifiable attributes
    and their data types [in brackets] are:

    autonomous system number [integer]
    external routes [set of send,receive]
    maximum active neighbors [integer]
    receive metric class [internal or external]
    send local metric [integer]
    send metric classes [set of external,internal]
    send replacement metric [integer]

1  –  autonomous_system_number

    Support: L2,IP
    Default: 0             Value: 0-65535

    The autonomous system number common to members of this group. You
    can modify this characteristic only when the entity is disabled.
    This attribute is supported only if the node is a level 2 router,
    and if the system supports dual routing (both DECnet and IP
    routing).

2  –  external_routes

    Support: L2,IP
    Default: Receive       Value: Set of send,receive

    If the set includes receive, external gateway routes are accepted
    from neighbors in the group; if the set does not include receive,
    external gateway routes are discarded. If the set includes send,
    external gateway routes will be sent to neighbors in this group;
    if the set does not include send, external gateway routes are not
    sent. You can modify this characteristic only when the entity is
    disabled.

3  –  maximum_active_neighbors

    Support: L2,IP
    Default: 1             Value: 0-255

    The maximum number of neighbor systems in the group that this
    system will attempt to acquire and maintain in the Up state at
    any given time. You can modify this characteristic only when the
    entity is disabled.

4  –  receive_metric_class

    Support: L2,IP
    Default: External      Value: Internal or external

    The class to be associated with routes received from EGP
    neighbors in this group (unless overridden by a routing receive
    route entity). You can modify this characteristic only when the
    entity is disabled.

5  –  send_local_metric

    Support: L2,IP
    Default: 1             Value: 0-255

    The metric value to be used when announcing routes derived from
    local information (unless overridden by a routing send route
    entity). You can modify this characteristic only when the entity
    is disabled.

6  –  send_metric_classes

    Support: L2,IP
    Default: Internal      Value: Set of external,internal

    Routes received through routing protocols other than EGP with
    metric classes in this set are candidates for announcement
    in EGP messages sent to neighbors in this group, subject to
    route propagation policy. Routes with metric classes not
    specified in this set will not be announced. You can modify this
    characteristic only when the entity is disabled.

7  –  send_replacement_metric

    Support: L2,IP
    Default: 1             Value: 0-255

    Specifies the metric value to be used when announcing routes
    derived from non-EGP routing protocols (unless overridden by a
    routing send route entity). You can modify this characteristic
    only when the entity is disabled.
