Which feature must you enable on the BGP neighbors to accomplish this goal?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

The soft reconfigure is correct by elimination (FGTs all support BGP Refresh, so question is not worded correctly - to refresh routes in advertisements, there is no need to do manually anything, after the change is committed to config FGT will send BGP Refresh message to the peers to notify them of it. The same is true for Cisco and Juniper routers. The question should ask 'when routing policy was changed' - then yes, reconfiguraiton is the way to notify BGP peers that BGP policy was changed.

Soft-reconfiguration sounds right, but I'm a bit skeptical about it.

Wait, can you really refresh routes without dropping the session?

You need to enable Soft-reconfiguration for that!

I’m a bit confused; I thought synchronization was important for route updates, but I don't think it fits this scenario.

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like soft-reconfiguration was mentioned as a way to refresh routes without disconnecting.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about BGP graceful restart being related to maintaining sessions during updates. Could it be C)?

I think the answer might be D) Soft-reconfiguration, since it allows for route updates without dropping the session.
