Layer 3 Routing Commands 1300neighbor shutdownUse the neighbor shutdown command to administratively disablecommunications with a specific BGP neighbor. The effect is to gracefullybring down the adjacency with the neighbor. If the adjacency is up when thecommand is given, the peering session is dropped and all route informationlearned from the neighbor is purged.Syntaxneighbor { ip-address | ipv6-address [interface interface-id] | autodetectinterface interface-id } shutdownno neighbor { ip-address | ipv6-address [interface interface-id] | autodetectinterface interface-id } shutdown• ip-address – The neighbor’s IPv4 address. This is the IP address of theneighbor on the connected link.• ipv6-address– The neighbor’s IPv6 address. If the neighbor’s IPv6 addressis a link local address, the local interface must also be specified. Valid inIPv6 address family configuration mode.• interface-id – The local VLAN routing interface over which the IPv6neighbor can be reached. Use the vlan keyword and a VLAN ID. Range 1-4093.• autodetect interface interface-id —(Optional) The routing interface onwhich the neighbor’s link local IPv6 address is auto detected. Theinterface-id must be a VLAN routing interface. Range is 1–4093.Default ConfigurationNeighbors are administratively enabled by default.Command ModeBGP Router Configuration, IPv4 Address Family Configuration, IPv6 AddressFamily Configuration
