Chapter 1 Configuring IP Unicast Routing
Configuring BGP
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, use these commands to configure BGP route dampening:
To disable flap dampening, use the no bgp dampening router configuration command without
keywords. To set dampening factors back to the default values, use the no bgp dampening router
configuration command with values.
Monitoring and Maintaining BGP
You can remove all contents of a particular cache, table, or database. This might be necessary when the
contents of the particular structure have become or are suspected to be invalid.
You can display specific statistics, such as the contents of BGP routing tables, caches, and databases.
You can use the information to get resource utilization and solve network problems. You can also display
information about node reachability and discover the routing path your device’s packets are taking
through the network.
Table 1-8 lists the privileged EXEC commands for clearing and displaying BGP. For explanations of the
display fields, see the Cisco IOS IP Command Reference, Volume 2 of 3: Routing Protocols,
Release 12.4.
