Syntax

bgp update-delay on-startup seconds

undo bgp update-delay on-startup

Default

BGP sends route updates immediately on reboot.

Views

Predefined user roles

Parameters

seconds: Specifies the delay time in the range of 0 to 3600 seconds. The value of 0 indicates that BGP does not send route updates after the device reboots.

Usage guidelines

After you execute this command, BGP redistributes all routes from other neighbors on reboot, selects the optimal route, and then advertises it. Using this command can reduce traffic loss caused by reboot.

Examples

# In BGP instance view, configure BGP to delay sending route updates on reboot and set the delay time to 100 seconds.
