Resetting Neighbors Using BGP Outbound Soft Reset
Perform this task to trigger an outbound soft reset of the specified address families for the specified group or
neighbors. The group is specified by the * , ip-address , as-number , or external keywords and arguments.
Resetting neighbors is useful if you change the outbound policy for the neighbors or any other configuration
that affects the sending or receiving of routing updates.
If an outbound soft reset is triggered, BGP resends all routes for the address family to the given neighbors.
To determine whether the neighbor has advertised the ROUTE_REFRESH capability, use the show bgp
neighbors command.
