Usage Information
This feature is advertised to BGP neighbors through a capability advertisement. In
Receiver Only mode, BGP saves the advertised routes of peers that support this
capability when they restart.
BGP graceful restart is active only when the neighbor becomes established.
Otherwise it is disabled. Graceful-restart applies to all neighbors with established
adjacency.
This command automatically restarts the BGP instance for the configuration to
take effect.
