Usage Information
If you enter the bgp dampening command, the default values for half-life, reuse, suppress, and max-
suppress-time are applied. The parameters are position-dependent; therefore, if you congure one parameter,
congure the parameters in the order they appear in the CLI.
Route refresh is sent when you enable BGP dampening.
