Re: BGP Dampening?

Amazing. Well, the details escape me but if 'decay' means 'half life' I
suppose you are right!

    This makes sense now.

    There's nothing in Halibi the 'bible' on BGP so there you go. I just
checked at least in the index for BGP dampening but it must be covered in the
fundamentals of the book.

    I suppose decay time is 'half life' in which case check out page 293 of
the book. Semantics :)

    Granualar stuff this! DocCD all the way.

      The half life time is the time in which the penalty will be half of what
it
      is currently
      The Max suppress penaltly is just the max time the route can be
suppressed.

      Check out the routing config guide under BGP for a much more in depth
      explanation

        Can anyone help me understanding Decay time and Max suppress penalty?

        I am familiar with other parameters but I am not able to understand
how
        Decay time and Max suppress penalty is calculated. Doc CD only
explains the
        configurable parameters but not decay time and Max suppress penalty.

        Thanks!
