f the specified maximum number is
reached:
For approach 1, the router
breaks down the BGP
connection to the peer.
For approach 2, the router
outputs alert information but
does not break down the BGP
connection to the peer.
For approach 3, the router
breaks down the BGP
connection to the peer and then
reestablishes a BGP connection
to the peer.
Configuring BGP route dampening
By configuring BGP route dampening, you can suppress unstable routes from being added to the local
routing table or being advertised to BGP peers.

Configuring a shortcut route
An EBGP route received has a priority of 255, which is lower than a local route. This task allows you to
configure an EBGP route as a shortcut route. It has the same priority as a local route and is more likely
to become the optimal route.
To configure a shortcut route:
