Hi gang,

On a 2500 series router, doing a hard reset of a BGP session takes about 1
to 2 minutes. In the lab, since they use higher end routers, I'm wondering
how long that takes?

Also, I've herad that soft resets aren't 100% reliable and therefore I
should just do a hard reset. So, bottom line, do people think it's better
to do hard or soft BGP session resets in the real lab.

Thanks in advance, PM
