BGP Restart Session After Max-Prefix Limit
The BGP Restart Session After Max-Prefix Limit feature enhances the capabilities of the neighbor
maximum-prefix command with the introduction of the restart keyword. This enhancement allows the
network operator to configure the time interval at which a peering session is reestablished by a router
when the number of prefixes that have been received from a peer has exceeded the maximum prefix limit.
The restart keyword has a configurable timer argument that is specified in minutes. The time range of
the timer argument is from 1 to 65535.
