peer route-update-interval (BGP-EVPN address family view)

Format

peer peerIpv4Addr route-update-interval interval

peer peerIpv6Addr route-update-interval interval

undo peer peerIpv4Addr route-update-interval

undo peer peerIpv6Addr route-update-interval

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Value
peerIpv4Addr	Specifies the IPv4 address of a peer.	It is in dotted decimal notation.
interval	Specifies the minimum interval at which routing updates are sent.	The value is an integer ranging from 0 to 600, in seconds. The value 0 indicates that the device immediately sends BGP Update messages to notify its peers of route changes.
peerIpv6Addr	Specifies the IPv6 address of a BGP EVPN peer.	The value is a 32-digit hexadecimal number, in the format of X:X:X:X:X:X:X:X.

Parameter

Description

Value

peerIpv4Addr

Specifies the IPv4 address of a peer.

It is in dotted decimal notation.

interval

Specifies the minimum interval at which routing updates are sent.

The value is an integer ranging from 0 to 600, in seconds. The value 0 indicates that the device immediately sends BGP Update messages to notify its peers of route changes.

peerIpv6Addr

Specifies the IPv6 address of a BGP EVPN peer.

The value is a 32-digit hexadecimal number, in the format of X:X:X:X:X:X:X:X.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

When routes change, the device sends routing updates to notify its peers. If a route changes frequently, the peer route-update-interval command can be used to adjust the interval at which Update packets are sent for changes of this route. This frees the device from sending Update packets for every route change.

Implementation Procedure

If the peer route-update-interval command is used but no peer exists, a message is displayed, indicating that the peer does not exist.

Precautions

If a route is withdrawn, the device immediately sends an Update message to its peers, regardless of the peer route-update-interval configuration. If a route is added and the interval between the last route addition time and the current route addition time is greater than the interval configured using the peer route-update-interval command, the device immediately sends an Update message to its peers. If a route is added and the interval between the last route addition time and the current route addition time is less than the interval configured using the peer route-update-interval command, the device sends an Update message to its peers only after the configured interval expires.

Example

# Set the interval at which routing updates are sent to a peer to 10s in the BGP-EVPN address family view.
