Usage
Information
When soft-reconfiguration is enabled for a neighbor and the clear ip bgp soft in is
executed, the update database stored in the router is replayed and updates are
reevaluated. With this command, the replay and update process is triggered only if
route-refresh request is not negotiated with the peer. If the request is indeed
negotiated (upon execution of
clear ip bgp soft in), then BGP sends a route-refresh
request to the neighbor and receives all of the peer’s updates.
