Command History
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-reconguration for the specied 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.

neighbor subnet
Enable passive peering so that the members of the peer group are dynamic.
Syntax
neighbor peer-group-name subnet subnet-number mask
To remove passive peering, use the no neighbor peer-group-name subnet subnet-number mask
command.
Parameters
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.
mask Enter a prex mask in / prex-length format (/x).
Defaults Not congured.
