Restarting the pgcpd Process Running on the Routing Engine
![]() | Caution: We recommend that you do not restart the software process unless instructed to do so by a Juniper Networks customer support engineer. A restart might cause the router to drop calls and interrupt transmission. |
Three options are available when you restart the pgcpd process that is running on the Routing Engine:
- gracefully—Restart the software process after calls have ended.
- immediately—Immediately restart the software process.
- soft— Reread and reactivate the configuration without completely restarting the software process.
To restart the pgcpd process, enter the restart pgcp-service command in operational mode:
user@host>restart pgcp-service immediately
When you restart the pgcpd process, the process is stopped and then restarted.
