| Parameter | Description | Value |
|---|---|---|
| vpn-instance vpn-instance-name | Specifies the name of a VPN instance. |
The value is a string of 1 to 31 case-sensitive characters, spaces not supported. When double quotation marks are used around the string, spaces are allowed in the string. |
| ipv4-family | Indicates an IPv4 unicast address family. |
- |
| ipv4-address | Specifies the address of a BGP IPv4 peer. |
It is in dotted decimal notation. |
| ipv6 | Clears the flapping count of the specified BGP IPv6 peer. |
- |
| ipv6-family | Indicates an IPv6 unicast address family. |
- |
| ipv6-address | Specifies the address of a BGP IPv6 peer. |
The address is a 32-digit hexadecimal number in the X:X:X:X:X:X:X:X format. |
Usage Scenario
BGP peer flapping affects the stability of a BGP network and BGP route convergence.
The reset bgp flapping-count command can be used to clear the flapping account of a BGP peer. This allows the router to re-collect the flapping statistics of a peer to locate BGP network problems.
Follow-up Procedure
After the reset bgp flapping-count command is used to clear the statistics count of a specified BGP peer, run the display bgp peer command to display the flapping count of BGP peers and locate BGP network problems.
Configuration Impact
After the reset bgp flapping-count command is run, the flapping statistics of BGP peers are reset and cannot be displayed.
