Configuring Damping
Observe the following when configuring damping.
• For each damping profile, all parameters must be configured.
• The suppress value must be greater than the reuse value (see Figure 18).
• Damping is enabled in the config>router>bgp context at the BGP global, 
group, and neighbor levels. If damping is enabled but route policy does not specify a 
damping profile, the default damping profile is used. This default profile is always 
present and consists of the following parameters:
→ half-life: 15 min
→ max-suppress: 60 min
→ reuse: 750
→ suppress: 3000
Use the following CLI syntax to configure damping: 
CLI Syntax: config>router>policy-options
damping name
half-life minutes
max-suppress minutes
reuse integer
suppress integer
The following example displays damping configuration command usage.
Example: config>router>policy-options#
config.router>policy-options#damping damptest123
config.router>policy-options#damping# max-suppress 60
config.router>policy-options#damping# half-life 15
config.router>policy-options#damping# re-use 750
config.router>policy-options#damping# suppress 1000
config.router>policy-options#damping# exit
config.router>policy-options#
