•
Advertise to all BGP neighbors and peer-groups that the forwarding state of all routes has been saved.
This prompts all peers to continue saving the routes they receive from your E-Series and to continue
forwarding traffic.
•
Bring the secondary RPM online as the primary and re-open sessions with all peers operating in “no
shutdown” mode.
•
Defer best path selection for a certain amount of time. This helps optimize path selection and results in
fewer updates being sent out.
Enable graceful restart using the
configure router bgp graceful-restart
command. The table below shows
the command and its available options:
BGP graceful restart is active only when the neighbor becomes established. Otherwise it is disabled.
Graceful-restart applies to all neighbors with established adjacency.
With the graceful restart feature, FTOS enables the receiving/restarting mode by default. In receiver-only
mode, graceful restart saves the advertised routes of peers that support this capability when they restart.
However, the E-Series does not advertise that it saves these forwarding states when it restarts. This option
provides support for remote peers for their graceful restart without supporting the feature itself.
You can implement BGP graceful restart either by neighbor or by BGP peer-group. For more information,
please see the following table or the
FTOS Command Line Interface Reference
