Configuring Graceful Restart Globally

To configure graceful restart globally, include the graceful-restart statement at the [edit routing-options] hierarchy level. To configure the duration of the graceful restart period, include the restart-duration at the [edit routing-options graceful-restart] hierarchy level.

Note: Helper mode (the ability to assist a neighboring router attempting a graceful restart) is enabled by default when you start the routing platform, even if graceful restart is not enabled. You can disable helper mode on a per-protocol basis.



[edit]
routing-options {



graceful-restart {

disable;

restart-duration seconds;
}


}

To disable graceful restart globally, include the disable statement at the [edit routing-options graceful-restart] hierarchy level.

When graceful restart is enabled for all routing protocols at the [edit routing-options graceful-restart] hierarchy level, you can disable graceful restart on a per-protocol basis.

Note: If you configure graceful restart after a BGP session has been established, the BGP session restarts and the peers negotiate graceful restart capabilities.
