BGP and BGP4+ Commands

 

bgp nexthop-trigger enable (BGP and BGP4+)

 

Use this command to enable nexthop address tracking. If nexthop address tracking is

 

enabled and a nexthop trigger delay interval has not been explicitly set with the bgp

 

nexthop-trigger delay (BGP and BGP4+) command on page 3.38, the default delay

 

interval of 5 seconds is used.

 

Use the no variant of this command to disable this feature.

Syntax [BGP/BGP4+]

bgp nexthop-trigger enable

 

no bgp nexthop-trigger enable

Default [BGP/BGP4+]

Disabled.

Mode [BGP/BGP4+]

Global Configuration

Usage [BGP/BGP4+]

Nexthop address tracking is an event driven notification system that monitors the status

 

of routes installed in the Routing Information Base (RIB) and reports nexthop changes that

 

affect internal BGP (iBGP) or external BGP (eBGP) prefixes directly to the BGP process. This

 

improves the overall BGP convergence time, by allowing BGP to respond rapidly to

 

nexthop changes for routes installed in the RIB.

 

If nexthop tracking is enabled after certain routes are learnt, the registration of all the

 

nexthops of selected BGP routes are done immediately after the nexthop tracking feature

 

is enabled.

 

If nexthop tracking is disabled, and if there are still some selected BGP routes, BGP

 

deregisters the nexthops of all of the selected BGP routes from the system.

 

If nexthop tracking is disabled when nexthop tracking is in the process of execution, an

 

error appears, and nexthop tracking is not disabled. However, if the nexthop tracking

 

timer is running at the time of negation, the nexthop tracking timer is stopped, and

 

nexthop tracking is disabled.

Example

To enable nexthop address tracking, enter the command:

[BGP/BGP4+]

awplus# configure terminal

 

 

awplus(config)# bgp nexthop-trigger enable
