7.6.4 Configuring BGP Soft Reset

BGP soft reset allows the system to refresh a BGP routing table dynamically without tearing
down any BGP connection if routing policies are changed.

4. Perform either of the following operations to configure the BGP device to filter the
routes received from all its peers or peer groups:
– To filter routes based on a specified ACL, run the filter-policy { acl-number | acl-
name acl-name } import command.
– To filter routes based on an IP prefix list, run the filter-policy ip-prefix ip-prefix-
name import command.
NOTE
If an ACL has been referenced in the filter-policy command but no VPN instance is specified
in any ACL rule, BGP will filter routes including public network routes and private network
routes in all address families. If a VPN instance is specified in an ACL rule, only the data traffic
from the VPN instance will be filtered, and no routes of this VPN instance will be filtered.
Configure a BGP device to receive routes from a specific peer or peer group.
You can configure a BGP device to filter received routes. Perform the following steps on
a BGP switch:
1. Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
2. Run:
bgp as-number
The BGP view is displayed.
3. Run:
ipv4-family unicast
The IPv4 unicast address family view is displayed.
4. Perform any of the following configurations to configure the BGP device to filter the
routes received from a specific peer or peer group:
– To filter routes based on an ACL, run the peer { ipv4-address | group-name }
filter-policy { acl-number | acl-name acl-name } import command.
– To filter routes based on an IP prefix list, run the peer { ipv4-address | group-
name } ip-prefix ip-prefix-nameimport command.
– To filter routes based on an AS_Path filter, run the peer { ipv4-address | group-
name } as-path-filter { as-path-filter-number | as-path-filter-name } import
command.
– To filter routes based on a route-policy, run the peer { ipv4-address | group-
name } route-policy route-policy-name import command.
A peer group and its members can use different import policies when receiving routes.
This means that each member in a peer group can select its own policy to filter received
routes.
