disable bgp advertise-inactive-route

disable bgp {address-family [ipv4-unicast | ipv4-multicast |ipv6-unicast | ipv6-multicast]} advertise-inactive-route

Description

Disables advertisement of BGP inactive routes, which are defined as those routes that rated best by BGP and not best in the IP routing table.

Syntax Description

address-family Specifies an IPv4 or IPv6 unicast or multicast address family.

Default

Disabled.

If no address family is specified, IPv4 unicast is the default address family.

Usage Guidelines

This command can be successfully executed only when BGP is globally disabled. If you want to disable inactive route advertisement and BGP is enabled, you must disable BGP (disable bgp), disable this feature, and then enable BGP (enable bgp).

If you do not specify an address family, this command applies to the IPv4 unicast address family. To apply this command to an address family other than the IPv4 unicast address family, you must specify the address family.

Example

The following command disables inactive route advertisement for IPv4 unicast traffic:

disable bgp address-family ipv4-unicast advertise-inactive-route

History

This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 12.1.3.

Support for IPv6 was added in ExtremeXOS 12.6 BGP.

Platform Availability

This command is available on platforms that support the appropriate license. For complete information about software licensing, including how to obtain and upgrade your license and which licenses support the BGP feature, see the Feature License Requirements document.
