Graceful restart

Tue Oct 02, 2018 8:37 am

Hi

Wondering if routeros has graceful restart option for OSPF and BGP.

I am looking at connecting Active Passive Pa cluster to some CCR's. they suggest for a faster fail over to tick off Graceful restart for OSPF and BGP.

Currently my setup is OSPF and BGP with BFD. I have to remove the BFD. but my google skills are not finding definite answer for GR on ROS

Thanks

Graceful restart currently is not supported.
Hi Guys,
We have received notification from Google that it wants us to implement Graceful Restart, is this in the list of BGP features to be added?

Dear Peer,
Google performs weekly software updates on its routing systems that restart BGP sessions. This could lead to a brief traffic shift to other ports if routers do not have Graceful Restart (GR) enabled. GR is a new standard protocol for the internet community that allows a BGP speaker to preserve a forwarding state during a restart. For details, see Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) document RFC4724: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4724

Dear Mikrotik,

I would also appreciate a response on this. Where is the promised graceful restart in ROSv7 ? We really need it for OSPF
