QuestionQ138

Routing Policy and Manipulation

A network administrator is preparing to upgrade a PE router that maintains BGP peering sessions with several CE routers. Because the SLA imposes strict uptime requirements, the administrator plans to implement BGP NSR with SSO for rapid convergence during the upgrade. Which action must the engineer perform as part of the NSR implementation?

  • A Configure the clear ip bgp 65514 soft in command on the PE and CE routers.
  • B Configure the bgp graceful-restart command on the PE router.
  • C Configure MPLS on the link between the PE and CE routers.
  • D Configure a VRF on each CE router on the interface that connects to the PE router.
Explanation

BGP NSR with SSO requires the PE router to enable BGP graceful restart, which provides BGP graceful-restart capability and NSF awareness so routing can be maintained through a control-plane switchover. Cisco’s NSR-with-SSO configuration procedure includes the bgp graceful-restart command on the PE router.
