BGP Router Configuration.
BGP sends an UPDATE or WITHDRAWN message whenever an advertised EBGP route changes unless a minimum EBGP advertisement-interval setting is set. The flapping of an EBGP route can cause the flooding of UPDATE and WITHDRAWN messages. The EBGP advertisement-interval setting determines the frequency of EBGP updates regardless of changes to advertised EBGP routes.
The no neighbor advertisement-interval command resets the BGP advertisement-interval to the default value of 30 seconds.
The following example sets the BGP advertisement interval for neighbor 9.1.2.1 to 35 seconds:
System(su-config)->router bgp 65151 System(su-config-bgp)->bgp router-id 159.1.1.9 System(su-config-bgp)->neighbor 9.1.2.1 advertisement-interval 35 System(su-config-bgp)->
