Shutting Down a VPG

You can shut down the VPG in two ways—forced or graceful:

Forced—The VPG immediately removes all gates and disconnects from the PGC. The packet gateway does not attempt to establish a new connection.
Graceful—The VPG goes out of service by entering a draining mode and waiting for all terminations to be subtracted before going out of service. During the draining, the VPG accepts only subtract and audit commands from the PGC.

Forcing the Shutdown of a VPG

To perform a forced shutdown of the VPG, enter set service-state out-of-service-forced at the [edit services pgcp gateway gateway-name] hierarchy level. For example:



[edit services pgcp gateway vpg-1]
user@host#set service-state out-of-service-forced

Performing a Graceful Shutdown of a VPG

To perform a graceful shutdown of the VPG, enter set service-state out-of-service-graceful at the [edit services pgcp gateway gateway-name] hierarchy level. For example:



[edit services pgcp gateway vpg-1]
user@host#set service-state out-of-service-graceful

Making the VPG Operational Again

To cause the VPG to be operational again and available for traffic, set the service state to in-service with the set service-state in-service statement. When the VPG is in service, it attempts to connect to the PGC and accepts all PGCP commands from the PGC. For example:



[edit services pgcp gateway vpg-1]
user@host#set service-state in-service
