The Tenant service configures graceful restart under each tenant VRF ipv4 or ipv6 unicast
address-family.
You can enable graceful restart per tenant VRF during VRF creation and VRF update
operations. EFA provisions the user input graceful restart on the switches during the
instantiation and update of VRF on the switches.
- VRF is instantiated on the switches
during a user-triggered L3 EPG create or L2 EPG transition to L3 EPG, based on the
endpoints present in the EPG.
- VRF is updated on the switches during a
user-triggered VRF update operation, based on the endpoints present in the EPGs, using
this VRF.
Currently, the enable or disable value of graceful restart depends on the per-user VRF
configuration.
Note
- By default, graceful restart is
disabled. The default value of graceful restart is the switch default.
- EFA versions earlier than v2.4 have
graceful restart enabled by default.
- An upgrade from a version earlier than
v2.4 to v2.4 will retain the graceful restart as enabled for all the VRFs that were
configured before the upgrade.
