Controlling the Receiving and Advertisement of BGP Routes

BGP advertises or receives only the wanted routes after filtering routes to be advertised or received, and modifies route attributes to direct network traffic.

Configuring BGP Filters: BGP filters filter routes to be advertised.

Configuring the Policy for Advertising BGP Routing Information: After a route advertisement policy is configured on a device, the device advertises only routes matching the policy to its peers.

Configuring the Policy for Receiving BGP Routing Information: After an import policy is configured, only the routes that match the import policy can be received.

Configuring BGP Soft Resetting: BGP soft resetting can refresh the BGP routing table and apply the new policy without closing the BGP connection.
