Description

Add checks for Muxes and Gateways to validate the BGP AS number that is defined. Ensure that it falls within the private range 64512-65534

https://www.iana.org/assignments/as-numbers/as-numbers.xhtml

While NC will accept the configuration, it typically gets blocked and not easily identified why resource configurationState is 'Failed' or 'InProgress'

Research direction

Start by locating the validation entry points for Muxes and Gateways, then review the IANA AS-number ranges linked in the issue. Add checks for configured BGP AS numbers against the stated private range and verify that invalid values are identified clearly rather than leaving resource configurationState as Failed or InProgress without explanation.
