Hello Guys,
i was doing a bgp config this morning and i stumbled by accident on the
following un-documented bgp neighbor command. Does anyone know what exactly it
does and in what scenario can one apply it?
i am using dynamips on a 3640 router running adv-ent IOS Version 12.4(23)
here is the output:

R4(config-router)#neighbor 22.22.22.22 up ?
