Usage Information
This command is a knob to disable BGP next-hop resolution using BGP learned routes. During the next-hop 
resolution, only the rst route that the next-hop resolves through is veried for the route’s protocol source and is 
checked if the route is learned from BGP or not.
The clear ip bgp command is required for this command to take eect and to keep the BGP database 
consistent. Execute the clear ip bgp command right after executing this command.
