Clearing BGP4+ neighbor information
You can perform the following tasks related to BGP4+ neighbor information:
•
Clear diagnostic buffers.
•
Reset a session to send and receive Outbound Route Filters (ORFs).
•
Close a session, or reset a session and resend/receive an update.
•
Clear traffic counters.
•
Clear route flap dampening statistics.
Clearing BGP4+ neighbor diagnostic buffers
You can clear the following BGP4+ neighbor diagnostic information in buffers:
•
The first 400 bytes of the last packet that contained an error.
•
The last NOTIFICATION message either sent or received by the neighbor.
To display these buffers, use the last-packet-with-error keyword with the show ipv6 bgp neighbors
command. For more information about this command, refer to
“Displaying last error packet from a
You can clear the buffers for all neighbors, for an individual neighbor, or for all the neighbors within
a specific peer group or AS.
To clear these buffers for neighbor 2000:e0ff:37::1, enter the following commands at the Privileged
EXEC level or any of the Config levels of the CLI.
BigIron RX# clear ipv6 bgp neighbor 2000:e0ff:37::1 last-packet-with-error
BigIron RX# clear ipv6 bgp neighbor 2000:e0ff:37::1 notification-errors
Syntax: clear ipv6 bgp neighbor all | <ipv6-address> | <peer-group-name> | <as-number>
last-packet-with-error | notification-errors
The all | <ipv6-address> | <peer-group-name> | <as-num> specifies the neighbor. The
<ipv6-address> parameter specifies a neighbor by its IPv6 address. You must specify this address
in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented in RFC 2373. The
<peer-group-name> specifies all neighbors in a specific peer group. The <as-num> parameter
specifies all neighbors within the specified AS. The all keyword specifies all neighbors.
The last-packet-with-error keyword clears the buffer containing the first 400 bytes of the last packet
that contained errors.
The notification-errors keyword clears the notification error code for the last NOTIFICATION
message sent or received.
Resetting a BGP4+ neighbor session to send and receive ORFs
You can perform a hard or soft reset of a BGP4+ neighbor session to send or receive ORFs. For
more information about cooperative filtering, refer to the “Configuring BGP4” chapter in the Router
Configuration Guide.
