Usage
Information
If you configure the neighbor maximum-prefix command and the neighbor receives more prefixes
than the neighbor maximum-prefix command configuration allows, the neighbor goes down and the
show ip bgp summary command displays (prfxd) in the State/PfxRcd column for that neighbor. The
neighbor remains down until you enter the clear ip bgp command for the neighbor or the peer group
to which the neighbor belongs or you enter the neighbor shutdown and neighbor no shutdown
commands.
