BGP Scanner

[mounir.mohamed]

Dear All,

IN Cisco IOS, is there is seperated Scanners one for BGP and another one for MP-BGP!!! i beleive that because there is onlyBGP process per router so Practically there is only One Scanner also the output of show proc cpu | inc BGP shown that there is only one scanner running on the router while the router running BGP and MP-BGP session

155 4853192 28039604 173 0.00% 0.02% 0.00% 0 BGP Router

157 1834796 3016664 608 0.00% 0.01% 0.00% 0 BGP I/O

158 42596720 774281 55015 0.00% 0.31% 0.25% 0 BGP Scanner

Mounir,

There is indeed one scanner for all address families.

Hope this helps,

Hello,

there is one Scanner process in software, but you can instruct it to scan different address-families at different frequencies. The config could be like this (not complete for a PE, just to show bgp scan-time):

router bgp 65000

bgp scan-time 20

neighbor 10.1.1.1 remote-as 65000

address-family vpnv4

neighbor 10.1.1.1 activate

neighbor 10.1.1.1 next-hop-self

bgp scan-time 15

exit-address-family

Hope this helps! Please rate all posts.
