Parameter 
all: Resets all the connections with BGP.  
peer-address: Resets the connection with a specified BGP peer.  
group-name: Resets the connection with a specified BGP peer group.

peer. 
export: Refreshes routes advertised to the peers. 
multicast: Refreshes multicast routes. 
vpn-instance: VPN instance route.

Description 
Use the refresh bgp command to request the peers to refresh the routes.  
After the BGP connection is established, only incremental routes are sent. However, 
some special cases exist. For example, when the routing policy changes, the routes 
advertised to the peer or the advertised routes from the peer need refreshing so that 
they can be filtered according to the new policy. 
Example 
# Request all peers to re-send the routes. 
<Quidway>refresh bgp all import
