Allow for Peer-Groups in ipv4-labeled-unicast SAFI
Closed, ResolvedPublicFEATURE REQUEST

Description

Currently the CLI doesn’t support applying a configured peer-group to the ipv4-labeled-unicast SAFI, though it is allowed in FRR.

vyos@vyos# set protocols bgp peer-group PG address-family 
Possible completions:
 > ipv4-unicast         IPv4 BGP neighbor parameters
 > ipv4-vpn             IPv4 VPN BGP neighbor parameters
 > ipv6-unicast         IPv6 BGP neighbor parameters
 > ipv6-vpn             IPv6 VPN BGP neighbor parameters
 > l2vpn-evpn           L2VPN EVPN BGP settings

The change is allowed if I use vtysh and the configuration is fully functional.

router bgp 65000 
 address-family ipv4 labeled-unicast
  neighbor PG activate
 exit-address-family

My specific use case is wanting to use a Listener Range, which doesn’t work for the labeled-unicast SAFI since I can’t attach the peer-group in VyOS' CLI. It does fully work if I drop into vtysh to configure it within FRR.
