Triggered policies

With triggered policy enabled, deletion and re-addition of a peer after making changes to export policy causes the new updates sent out to all peers.

Triggered policy is not honored if a new peer added to BGP. Update with the old policy is sent to the newly added peer. New policy does not get applied to the new peer until the peer is flapped.

With triggered policy enabled, if a new BGP/static route comes in, new addition or modification of an export policy causes the updates to send out dynamically to all peers with the new/modified export policy.

When multiple peers, say P1, P2 and P3 share the same export policy, any modifications to export policy followed by clear soft on one of the peer P1, send out routes to P1 only according to newly modified policy.

Though routes with newly modified policy are not sent to other peers (P2, and P3) as no clear soft issues on these peers, RIB-OUT shows that new routes with modified policy are sent to all the peers. RIB-IN on peers P2 and P3 are shown correctly.

When multiple peers, such as P1, P2 and P3, share the same export policy, any modifications to the export policy followed by clear soft on one of the peer P1s, send out routes to P1 only according to the newly modified policy. Though routes with the newly modified policy are not sent to other peers (P2 and P3) as there are no clear soft issues on these peers, RIB-OUT shows that the new routes with the modified policy are sent to all the peers.
