Syntax
[ no | default ] bgp graceful-restart
Release Information
Command introduced before JunosE Release 7.1.0.
Description
Enables the BGP graceful restart capability globally, which enables BGP to maintain its forwarding state during a peer restart, avoiding network-wide route flaps and interruptions in traffic forwarding. Graceful restart is disabled by default. The default version restores the default condition, wherein graceful restart is disabled, and consequently, advertisement of the BGP graceful restart capability is stopped. The no version disables the graceful restart capability.
