neighbor soft-reconfiguration inbound
Enable a BGP soft-reconfiguration and start storing updates for inbound IPv6 unicast routes.
C-Series, E-Series TeraScale, S4810
Syntax
neighbor {ipv4-address | ipv6-address | peer-group-name} soft-
reconfiguration inbound
Parameters
ipv4-address |
ipv6-address
Enter the IP address of the neighbor for which you want to start
storing inbound routing updates.
peer-group-name Enter the name of the peer group for which you want to start storing
inbound routing updates.
Defaults Disabled.
Command Modes ROUTER BGPv6 ADDRESS FAMILY (conf-router_bgpv6_af)
Command History
Version 8.4.1.0 Added support for IPv4 multicast and IPv4 unicast address families.
Version 7.8.1.0 Introduced on the S4810.
Version 7.7.1.0 Introduced on the C-Series.
Version 7.4.1.0 Introduced
Usage
Information
This command enables soft-reconfiguration for the specified BGP neighbor. BGP stores all
updates for inbound IPv6 unicast routes received by the neighbor 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.

C-Series, E-Series
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.
