…was changed" This reverts commit ee1986f. The fix is incomplete, and is no longer needed with the fix that applies the route-map for an aggregate and then compares the attribute. Signed-off-by: Enke Chen <[email protected]> (cherry picked from commit b0f96fc)
Currently when re-evaluating an aggregate route, the full attribute of the aggregate route is not compared with the existing one in the BGP table. That can result in unnecessary churns (un-install and then install) of the aggregate route when a more specific route is added or deleted, or when the route-map for the aggregate changes. The churn would impact route installation and route advertisement. The fix is to apply the route-map for the aggregate first and then compare the attribute. Here is an example of the churn: debug bgp aggregate prefix 5.5.5.0/24 ! route-map set-comm permit 10 set community 65004:200 ! router bgp 65001 address-family ipv4 unicast redistribute static aggregate-address 5.5.5.0/24 route-map set-comm !
