5-8
half-life-unreachable: Semi-dampening of an unreachable, in the range of 1 to 45
minutes. The default value is 15 minutes.
reuse: Threshold for disabling route suppression. When the penalty value is below
this threshold, the route will be reused. The range is 1 to 20000. The default value is
750.
suppress: Threshold for enabling route suppression. When the penalty value is above
the threshold, the route is suppressed. The range is 1 to 20000. The default value is
2000.
ceiling: Upper penalty threshold, that is, the penalty value stops increasing when it
reaches the upper threshold. The range is 1001 to 20000. The default value is 16000.
route-policy-name: Name of a route policy, in the range of 1 to 19 characters.
If no value is specified for the arguments, their default values will take effect. The
half-life-reachable, half-life-unreachable, reuse, suppress, and ceiling arguments are
independent of each other.. Therefore, if you specify a value for any of these
arguments, you must specify a value for all the others.
Description
Use the dampening command to make BGP route attenuation valid or modify various
BGP route attenuation parameters.
Use the undo dampening command to make the characteristics invalid.
By default, no route attenuation is configured.
Related command: reset bgp dampening, reset bgp flap-info, display bgp
routing-table dampened, and display bgp routing-table flap-info.
