Parameters

bgp-route-limit [num-routes <VALUE>|reset-time <1-86400>|retry-count <1-32>|
retry-timeout <1-3600>]
num-routes <VALUE> Configures the number of routes that can be stored on this BGP router. Set this value based on the available memory on this BGP router (wireless controller or service platform).
  • <VALUE> – Specify a value from 1 - 4,294,967,295. The default is 9216 routes.
reset-time <1-86400> Configures the reset time in seconds. This is the time after which the retry count value is set to Zero (0).

retry-count <1-32> Configures the maximum number of times the BGP process is reset before being permanently shut down. Once shut down, the BGP process has to be started manually. The BGP process is reset if it is flooded with route entries that exceed the maximum number of routes configured for this device.
  • <1-32> – Specify a value from 1 - 32. The default is 5 routes.
retry-timeout <1-3600> Configures the duration, in seconds, the BGP process is temporarily shut down, before a reset of the process is attempted.
