Ip Bgp Neighbor Soft-Reconfiguration - Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6850-48 Cli Reference Manual

ip bgp neighbor soft-reconfiguration

Enables or disables BGP peer soft reconfiguration. Soft reconfiguration increases the stability of the peer
by allowing you to reconfigure attributes that require peer resets without halting the TCP connection with
other peers.

Default
This command is enabled by default.
Platforms Supported
OmniSwitch 6850, 6855, 6850E, 9000E
Usage Guidelines
•
Use the no form of this command to disable this feature.
•
This feature stores routes and other configuration information in local memory. When you make
configuration changes that require a peer reset, the routing cache is not cleared and connections with
other peers are not interrupted.
•
By default BGP stores all paths from peers, even those that are policy rejected, in anticipation of policy
changes in the future. Storing these paths consumes memory. You can use this command to disable the
storing of these paths, or soft reconfiguration. However, if soft reconfiguration is disabled and the
inbound policy changes, the peer will have to be restarted using the
command.
•
The BGP peer is restarted after issuing this command.
