Tuning and Optimizing MBGP Networks
This task involves resetting MBGP connections and configuring load balancing.
Prerequisites
You need to configure BGP basic functions before configuring this task.
Configuring MBGP Soft Reset
After modifying a route selection policy, you have to reset MBGP connections to make it take effect,
causing short time disconnections.
After the route-refresh capability is enabled on all MBGP routers in a network, when a route selection
policy is modified on a router, the local router can perform dynamic route updates without tearing down
MBGP connections.
If the peer does not support route-refresh, you can save all route updates from the peer. When the route
selection policy changes, you can refresh the MBGP routing table and apply the new policy without
tearing down MBGP connections.
Soft reset through route-refresh
If the peer is enabled with route-refresh, when the MBGP route selection policy is modified on a router,
the router advertises a route-refresh message to its MBGP peers, which resend their routing information
to the router after receiving the message. Therefore, the local router can perform dynamic route update
and apply the new policy without tearing down MBGP connections.
