ipv6 bgp neighbor soft-reconfiguration

peer by allowing you to reconfigure attributes that require peer resets without halting the TCP connection 
with other peers.

Usage Guidelines
• Use the no form of this command to disable this feature.
• This feature stores routes and other configuration information in local memory. When you make 
configuration changes that require a peer reset, the routing cache is not cleared and connections with 
other peers are not interrupted.
• BGP neighbor must be configured.
• BGP peer is restarted after issuing this command.
