More generally openconfig-bgp supports the following config levels:

      BGP
        |
        +-> [ global BGP configuration ]
          +-> AFI / SAFI global
        +-> peer group
          +-> [ peer group config ]
          +-> AFI / SAFI [ per-AFI overrides ]
        +-> neighbor
          +-> [ neighbor config ]
          +-> [ optional pointer to peer-group ]
          +-> AFI / SAFI [ per-AFI overrides ]

where the BGP container itself lives under a network-instance that might be a VRF, e.g.:

  <config xmlns:xc="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netconf:base:1.0">
    <network-instances xmlns="http://openconfig.net/yang/network-instance">
      <network-instance>
        <name>vrf1</name>
        <protocols>
          <protocol>
            <name>bgp</name>
            <identifier>BGP</identifier>
             <bgp xmlns="http://openconfig.net/yang/bgp">
              <global>
                <config xmlns="">
                  <as>100</as>
                  <router-id>2.2.2.2</router-id>
                </config>
              </global>
            </bgp>
           </protocol>
        </protocols>
      </network-instance>
    </network-instances>
  </config>
