This command enables or disables soft-reconfiguration for a peer or peer group.
| ip-address | A BGP peer specified as a valid IPv4 address in dotted-quad format or as a valid IPv6 address in colon-separated format. |
| groupID | A BGP peer group name specified as a character string. If an invalid IP address is specified (for example, 256.1.1.1), it will be read as a group name. |
None.
BGP Router Configuration.
The soft reconfiguration capability keeps a local copy of the routes for the specified peer or group. If there is an inbound policy change, the new policy can be reapplied to determine which routes are accepted. The soft reconfiguration capability speeds up the route installation process when a policy change occurs. Soft reconfiguration increases memory usage on the router.
The no neighbor soft-reconfiguration command resets the route refresh capability to the default value of disabled.
The following example turns on the route refresh capability for peer 10.10.25.1:
System(su-config)->router bgp 65151 System(su-config-bgp)->bgp router-id 159.1.1.9 System(su-config-bgp)->neighbor 10.10.25.1 remote-as 5 System(su-config-bgp)->neighbor 10.10.25.1 soft-reconfiguration
