BGP Configuration Commands
XSR CLI Reference Guide 6-103
Syntax of the “no” Form
The no form of this command returns to the command default:
no neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} soft-reconfiguration inbound
Mode
Router configuration:
XSR(config-router)#
Default
No soft reconfiguration is done.
Example
The following example configures soft reconfiguration on the router:
XSR(config)#router bgp 100
XSR(config-router)#neighbor 192.168.1.1 remote-as 101
XSR(config-router)#neighbor 192.168.1.1 soft-reconfiguration inbound
neighbor timers
This command changes the values of BGP timers for a peer or peer group. When a session is
started, BGP negotiates the hold‐time with the neighbor, selecting the smaller value. The keep‐
alive timer is then set based on the negotiated hold‐time and the configured keep‐alive interval.
By default, the keep‐alive timer is set to 30 seconds and the hold‐time timer set to 90 seconds. This
1 to 3 ratio is strictly maintained between the timers.
Syntax
neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} timers keep-alive
Syntax of the “no” Form
The no form of this command returns to the command default:
no neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} timers keep-alive
Default
Keep‐alive: 30 seconds
Note: Perform a clear ip bgp neighbor
The timers configured for a specific neighbor or peer group override the timers configured for all
BGP neighbors using the timers bgp command.
ip-address
Neighbor’s IP address.
peer-group-name
BGP peer group’s name, ranging from 1 to 64 characters.
keep-alive
Keep‐alive interval, ranging from 0 to 4,294,967,296 seconds. A keep‐
alive of zero indicates no keep‐alives are sent between neighbors so the
peer session will not time out.
