3. Enter the rib-route-limit command to set the maximum number of BGP4 rib routes that can be
installed in the RTM.
Brocade(config-bgp)#rib-route-limit 500
Syntax: rib-route-limit decimal
The decimal variable specifies the maximum number of BGP4 rib routes that can be installed
in the RTM. The user may enter any number for the decimal variable for the rib-route-limit
command. By default, there is no limit. If the rib-route-limit command is set to 0, no BGP4
routes are installed in the RTM. If a BGP4 route is not installed in the RTM because of the
configuration set by the rib-route-limit command, the always-propagate command must be
enabled for preferred BGP4 routes to be advertised to the BGP4 neighbors.
If the rib-route-limit command is configured to a value that is below the number of BGP4 routes
already installed in the RTM, the following warning message is displayed on the console.
Brocade(config-bgp)# rib-route-limit 250
The new limit is below the current bgp rib route count. Please use Clear ip bgp
routes command to remove bgp rib routes.
You can only use one of the following commands to clear all BGP4 routes in the RTM, and reset
the routes for preferred BGP4 routes to be reinstalled in the RTM. Depending on the type of
route the rib-route-limit command is used for, select from one of the following commands:
• clear ip bgp routes command. This command is used to clear IPv4 BGP unicast routes.
• clear ipv6 bgp routes command. This command is used to clear IPv6 BGP unicast routes.
• clear ip mbgp routes command. This command is used to clear IPv4 MBGP multicast
routes.
• clear ipv6 mbgp routes command. This command is used to clear IPv6 MBGP multicast
routes.
NOTE
Brocade does not guarantee that the same number of preferred BGP4 routes will be
reinstalled in the RTM.
4. To exit the BGP4 unicast or multicast address family configuration, enter the following
command.
Brocade(config-bgp-ipv4m)#exit-address-family
Syntax: exit-address-family
When you enter the exit-address-family command at the address family configuration level, you
return to the BGP4 unicast address family configuration level (the default BGP4 level).
Displaying configuration for BGP router reflector
To display the configuration for preferred BGP4 routes not installed in the RTM, use the show ip bgp
route command as shown in the following example.
