How do I configure the router_id of BGP? How do I choose it automatically?

The global router_id should be configured in system_view by the command:
For example:
<HUAWEI>system
[HUAWEI] router id 1.1.1.1
If the ID is not configured, the system chooses an ID for the router from the IP addresses of the current interfaces. Selection In the following order:
The largest IP address of current loopback interfaces;
The largest IP address of current physical interfaces;
The router_id will be re-selected, just when router_id is removed or the interface which the IP address of the router_id is configured in is deleted.
In order to increase the reliability of the network, it is recommended that the Router ID manually should be configured with the IP address of the loopback interface.
You can also configure BGP router_id by following command, or else BGP will use the global router_id.
For example:
<HUAWEI>system
[HUAWEI] bgp 100
[HUAWEI-bgp-100] router-id 1.1.1.1
Modification of the BGP router-id will cause the entire BGP neighbors rebuilding.
