Description

Specify whether routes learned from a BGP peer are retained in the routing table even if they contain an AS number that was exported from the local AS.

Default

If you do not include this statement, most routes are retained in the routing table.

Options

all—Retain all routes.

none—Retain none of the routes. When keep none is configured for the BGP session and the inbound policy changes, the JUNOS software forces readvertisement of the full set of routes advertised by the peer.

Usage Guidelines
