Controlling route-refresh updates
You can control route-refresh updates for IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes.
Following is the list of commands to control the route-refresh updates for IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes:
Table 11. Command for respective route-refresh updates
Command Route-refresh Updates
clear ip bgp neighbor-ipv4-address ipv4 unicast soft in
Only IPv4 route-refresh updates using IPv4
neighbor
clear ip bgp neighbor-ipv6-address ipv6 unicast soft in
Only IPv6 route-refresh updates using IPv6
neighbor
clear ip bgp neighbor-ipv4-address ipv6 unicast soft in
Only IPv6 route-refresh updates using IPv4

Aggregating Routes
When BGP peers exchange information about the networks, a large BGP routing tables is created. Dell EMC Networking OS provides
multiple ways to aggregate routes to reduced the size of the BGP routing table which helps to improve the network performance by
reducing the convergence time. You can configure BGP to configure and advertise aggregated routes. At least one specific route of the
aggregate must be in the routing table for the configured aggregate to become active.
To aggregate routes, use the following command.
AS_SET includes AS_PATH and community information from the routes included in the aggregated route.
Assign the IP address and mask of the prefix to be aggregated.
CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode
aggregate-address ip-address mask [advertise-map map-name] [as-set] [attribute-map map-name]
[summary-only] [suppress-map map-name]
as-set- Specify that the advertised path of this route is an AS_SET.
summary-only-Create aggregate route and suppress advertisements of specific routes to all neighbors.
suppress-map map-name-Create aggregate route by suppressing the advertisements of specific routes.
advertise-map map-name-Create aggregate route by advertising specific routes.
