29.6.12 Checking the limit on the number of BGP4 + learned routes
- <Structure of this section>
 
(1) List of operation commands
The following tables list the operation commands for limiting the number of BGP4 + learned routes.
| 
                         Command name  | 
                     
                         Description  | 
                  
|---|---|
| 
                         show ipv6 route  | 
                     
                         Displays routing information stored in the routing table.  | 
                  
| 
                         show ipv6 bgp  | 
                     
                         Shows information about the BGP4+ protocol.  | 
                  
| 
                         clear ipv6 bgp  | 
                     
                         Reconnects a peer that was disconnected because it exceeded the maximum number of BGP4+ routes that can be learned from a particular device.  | 
                  
(2) Checking the limit on the number of BGP4 + learned routes and the number of routes learned from peers
To check the allowable maximum and the actual number of BGP4+ routes (sum of the active and inactive paths) learned from a particular peer, use the show ipv6 bgp operation command with the neighbors parameter and an <As>, a <Peer Address>, or a <Host name> argument or the detail parameter specified.

- 
                  
The peer is disconnecting from 20XX/01/13 18:42:26.
 - 
                  
The peer was disconnected because it exceeded the maximum number of learned routes.
 - 
                  
The disconnected peer was reconnected after 60 minutes.
 - 
                  
Of the allowable maximum of 1000 routes, the peer has learned 94 routes from the specified peer.
 
(3) Reconnecting BGP4+ sessions disconnected due to the limit on the number of learned routes
BGP4+ sessions that are disconnected because the number of learned routes exceeds the upper limit due to the limit on the number of learned routes are reconnected by specifying the * or <Peer Address>, <Host Name> parameter in the operation command clear ipv6 bgp.
Reconnection of a BGP4+ session by using the command
- 
                  
# clear ipv6 bgp 3ffe:172:16:2::2
Reconnects the BGP4+ session with remote peer address 3ffe:172:16:2::2, which was disconnected after exceeding the learned routes limit.
