Configure Route Flap Dampening
You can supply the dampening configuration parameters directly through a command line
interface (CLI) command, or use the command to associate a policy that contains the desired
parameters.
-
To enable route flap dampening for neighbors or a peer
group, use the following commands:
configure
bgp neighbor [all | remoteaddr] {address-family [ipv4-unicast |
ipv4-multicast | ipv6-unicast | ipv6-multicast | vpnv4]} dampening {{half-life
half-life-minutes {reuse-limit
reuse-limit-number
suppress-limit
suppress-limit-number
max-suppress
max-suppress-minutes} | policy-filter [policy-name | none]}
configure bgp peer-group peer-group-name {address-family [ipv4-unicast | ipv4-multicast | ipv6-unicast | ipv6-multicast | vpnv4]} dampening {{half-life
half-life-minutes {reuse-limit
reuse-limit-number
suppress-limit
suppress-limit-number
max-suppress
max-suppress-minutes} | policy-filter [policy-name | none]}
-
To disable route flap dampening for a BGP neighbor or peer
group, use the following commands:
configure
bgp neighbor [remoteaddr | all] {address-family [ipv4-unicast |
ipv4-multicast | ipv6-unicast | ipv6-multicast | vpnv4]} no-dampening
configure
bgp peer-group peer-group-name {address-family [ipv4-unicast | ipv4-multicast | ipv6-unicast | ipv6-multicast | vpnv4]} no-dampening
Note
When you disable dampening, all the configured
dampening parameters are deleted.
