##############
Maximum-Prefix
##############

Scenario to verify BGP **peer-group maximum-prefix** inheritance.
When ``maximum-prefix`` is configured on a peer-group, the session closes
if the number of prefixes received exceeds the configured limit.

**********************************************************************
Test iBGP - Peer-group maximum-prefix closes session on limit exceeded
**********************************************************************

Description
===========

Test that ``maximum-prefix`` configured on a peer-group closes the session when
the prefix limit is exceeded. DUT1 initially advertises 2 prefixes (within limit),
then a third is added to exceed the limit, causing the session to enter Idle (PfxCt).
