Clearing Caches, Tables, and Databases

Command or Action
Example:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:router# clear bgp ipv4 unicast 10.0.0.3
graceful soft out
Clearing Caches, Tables, and Databases
Perform this task to remove all contents of a particular cache, table, or database. The clear bgp command
resets the sessions of the specified group of neighbors (hard reset); it removes the TCP connection to the
neighbor, removes all routes received from the neighbor from the BGP table, and then re-establishes the
session with the neighbor. Clearing a cache, table, or database can become necessary when the contents of
the particular structure have become, or are suspected to be, invalid.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. clear bgp { ipv4 { unicast | multicast | all | tunnel } | ipv6 unicast | all { unicast | multicast
| all | tunnel } | vpnv4 unicast | vrf { vrf-name | all } { ipv4 unicast | ipv6 unicast } ip-address
2. clear bgp external
3. clear bgp *
