Description

This command administratively disables an entity. When disabled, an entity does not change, reset, or remove any configuration settings or statistics.

The operational state of the entity is disabled as well as the operational state of any entities contained within. Many objects must be shut down before they may be deleted.

Services are created in the administratively down (shutdown) state. When a no shutdown command is entered, the service becomes administratively up and then tries to enter the operationally up state. Default administrative states for services and service entities is described as follows in Special Cases.

The no form of this command places the entity into an administratively enabled state.

If the ASN was previously changed, the BGP ASN inherits the new value.

Special Cases

Service Admin State

Bindings to an SDP within the service are put into the out-of-service state when the service is shut down. While the service is shut down, all customer packets are dropped and counted as discards for billing and debugging purposes.

A service is regarded as operational providing that one IP Interface SAP and one SDP is operational.

VPRN BGP

This command disables the BGP instance on the specified IP interface. Routes learned from a neighbor that is shut down are immediately removed from the BGP database and RTM. If BGP is globally shut down, all group and neighbor interfaces are shut down operationally. If a BGP group is shut down, all member neighbor interfaces are shut down operationally. If a BGP neighbor is shut down, just that neighbor interface is operationally shut down.
