User Guidelines
The grace LSA announcing the graceful restart includes a restart reason.
Reasons 1 (software restart) and 2 (software reload/upgrade) are considered
planned restarts. Reasons 0 (unknown) and 3 (switch to redundant control
processor) are considered unplanned restarts.
nsf ietf helper disable is functionally equivalent to no nsf helper and is
supported solely for IS CLI compatibility.
