set protocols bgp neighbor maximum-prefix-out

The set protocols bgp neighbor maximum-prefix-out command sets a maximum number of prefixes we can send to a given neighbor. Since sent prefix count is managed by update-groups, this option creates a separate update-group for outgoing updates.
The delete protocols bgp neighbor maximum-prefix-out command disables the maximum number of prefixes limit.

Command Syntax
