Usage Guidelines

You can run the refresh bgp evpn command to manually soft reset an EVPN connection. EVPN soft resets can update the EVPN routing table without interrupting a BGP connection and apply new filtering policies.

If a policy application delay time is configured:

When the routing policy is set to neighbor import by running the peer route-policy import command, you can run the refresh bgp evpn all command to trigger BGP to re-apply the routing policy.
When the routing policy is set to neighbor export by running the peer route-policy export command, the routing policy is not re-applied even if the refresh bgp evpn all command is run.

Example

# Soft reset all BGP-EVPN connections in the import direction to make new configurations take effect.
