Release Information
Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 9.2.
Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 9.2 for EX Series switches.
Description
Configure a limit to the number of prefixes that
can be accepted on a BGP peering session. When that limit is exceeded,
a system log message is sent. You can optionally specify to reset
the BGP session when the number of accepted prefixes exceeds the specified
limit.
Options
idle-timeout (forever | minutes)—Specify that a BGP session that has been reset is not
reestablished until after the specified timeout period. Specify forever to prevent the BGP session from being reestablished
until the clear bgp neighbor command is issued.
maximum number—Limit the
number of prefixes that can be accepted on a BGP peering session.
A system log message is sent when that number is exceeded.
- Range: 1 through 4,294,967,295 (232 – 1)
teardown <percentage 1/n threshold>—Specify to reset the BGP peering session when the specified
limit to the number of prefixes that can be accepted is exceeded.
If you specify a percentage, a system log message is sent when the
accepted number of prefixes on the BGP session exceeds the specified
percentage of the configured limit. After a BGP session is reset,
it is reestablished within a short time unless you include the idle-timeout statement.
- Range: 1 through 100
- Range: 1 through 2400
Required Privilege Level
routing—To view this statement in the
configuration.
