  1. It operates as a restart router and a receive router for graceful restart.

  2. The peers successfully negotiated the graceful restart functionality at connection of the BGP4+ session.

Specify an operation-command show ipv6 bgp to apply graceful restart and to show the routes that are being restarted by the source router.
