• Enable soft-reconfiguration debug.
EXEC Privilege mode
debug ip bgp {ip-address | peer-group-name} soft-reconfiguration
To enhance debugging of soft reconfig, use the bgp soft-reconfig-backup command only when
route-refresh is not negotiated to avoid the peer from resending messages.
In-BGP is shown using the show ip protocols command.
The system displays debug messages on the console. To view which debugging commands are enabled, use
the show debugging command in EXEC Privilege mode.
To disable a specific debug command, use the keyword no then the debug command. For example, to
disable debugging of BGP updates, use no debug ip bgp updates command.
To disable all BGP debugging, use the no debug ip bgp command.
To disable all debugging, use the undebug all command.

Storing Last and Bad PDUs

The system stores the last notification sent/received and the last bad protocol data unit (PDU) received on a
per peer basis. The last bad PDU is the one that causes a notification to be issued.
In the following example, the last seven lines shown in bold are the last PDUs.
