Why users cannot set up the description to the BGP neighbor ?

Console(config-router)#neighbor x.x.x.x description Edge-Core
Failed to set neighbor description.
Console(config-router)#

 

Solution:

Users have to set "neighbor remote-as". After that, users are able to set the BGP neighbor description.

Console#con
Console(config)#router bgp 1
Console(config-router)#neighbor 192.168.1.2 remote-as 2
Console(config-router)#neighbor 192.168.1.2 description Edge-Core
Console(config-router)#
