We have had some BGP adjacency failures and not all network advertisements recover. The neighbor recovers in about 9 seconds but one network does not recover properly. It still shows up in the routing table but we cannot get access to the far end devices until we do a shut, no shut on the internal gig interface. At no time does any of the circuits or links go down. This is a multi-homed environment on two different providers.
