Guys,

How about being a little more constructive than doubting his level of
engineering skill? We are all on this forum to learn and help each other
out... I'm sure there was a time when you had no clue about anything...
Remember what your momma said... "If you can't say anything nice, shut the
hell up..."

Enough of my tirade... On to more constructive tasks...

Tony,

On your neighbor statements, you can try playing with your advertisement
intervals...

router bgp 65534
        neighbor 192.168.0.1 advertisement-interval 10 (time in seconds)
        neighbor 192.168.0.1 remote-as 1

in addition, there is the timers keyword that will allow you to modify the
default keepalive timers, etc...

router bgp 65534
        timers bgp 5 (keepalive timer) 10 (hold-time)
        neighbor 192.168.0.1 remote-as 1
        neighbor 192.168.0.1 advertisement-interval 10

HTH,

-Brant

        Tony,

        I do a 'clear ip bgp * soft out' on both ends of the peer connection an
d
this works well for me. It's tiresome typing it out all the time, so I use
an alias.

        Thanks,

          Wayne

I meant without manually using any kind of 'clear ip bgp *' command.

Regards,
Tony
