a BGP peer group, use the
clear ip bgp peer-group
command.

Command Mode
Privileged EXEC
Usage Guideline
The
clear ip bgp peer-group
command is used to initiate a hard reset or soft
reconfiguration for neighbor sessions of BGP peer groups. A hard reset tears
down and rebuilds the specified peering sessions and rebuilds the BGP routing
tables. A soft reconfiguration uses stored prefix information to reconfigure and
activate BGP routing tables without tearing down existing peering sessions.
Soft reconfiguration uses stored update information, at the cost of additional
memory for storing the updates, to allow application of a new BGP policy without
disrupting the network. Soft reconfiguration can be configured for inbound or
outbound sessions.
Use this command whenever any of the following changes occur:
• Additions or modifications to the BGP-related access lists
• Modifications to BGP-related weights
• Modifications to BGP-related distribution lists
• Modifications to BGP-related route maps
The route refresh capability, as defined in RFC 2918, allows the local router to
reset inbound routing tables dynamically by exchanging route refresh requests to
supporting peers. The route refresh capability does not store update information
locally for non-disruptive policy changes. It instead relies on dynamic exchange
with supporting peers. Route refresh is advertised through BGP capability
negotiation. All BGP routers must support the route refresh capability.
