Version Description
9.9(0.0) Introduced on the FN IOM.
9.2(0.0) Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.
Usage Information This command enables soft-reconfiguration for the specified BGP neighbor. BGP stores all updates for inbound
IPv6 unicast routes the neighbor receives but does not reset the peer-session.
CAUTION: Inbound update storage is a memory-intensive operation. The entire BGP update database
from the neighbor is stored in memory regardless of the inbound policy results applied on the neighbor.

Syntax

subnet-number Enter a subnet number in dotted decimal format (A.B.C.D.) as the allowable range of
addresses included in the Peer group. To allow all addresses, enter 0::0/0.
