3-20
303550-A Rev 00
Entity Code/Event Code 52/71
Decimal Identifier 16790599
Severity: Info
Message: Connection <IP_address> -- <IP_address> initializing.
Meaning: The BGP connection identified by <IP_address> -- <IP_address> is coming up.
Entity Code/Event Code 52/72
Decimal Identifier 16790600
Severity: Info
Message: Connection <IP_address> -- <IP_address> : FSM: Idle
Meaning: The BGP FSM for the specified connection is in the Idle State. In this initial state BGP
refuses all incoming BGP connections. No resources are allocated to the BGP neighbor. In
response to the Start event the router software initializes all BGP resources, starts the
ConnectRetry timer, initiates a transport connection to other BGP peer, while listening for
connection that may be initiated by the remote BGP peer, and changes its state to Connect.
Any other event received in the Idle state is ignored.
Entity Code/Event Code 52/73
Decimal Identifier 16790601
Severity: Info
Message: Connection <IP_address> -- <IP_address> : FSM: Connect
Meaning: The BGP FSM for the specified connection is in the Idle State. In the Connect State, BGP
waits for the transport protocol connection to be completed. If the transport protocol
connection succeeds, the router software clears the ConnectRetry timer, completes
initialization, sends an OPEN message to its peer, and changes its state to OpenSent.
If the transport protocol connect fails, the router software restarts the ConnectRetry timer,
continues to listen for a connection that may be initiated by the remote BGP peer, and
transitions to the Active state. In response to the ConnectRetry timer expired event, the
router software restarts the ConnectRetry timer, initiates a transport connection to the
remote BGP peer, continues to listen for a connection that may be initiated by the remote
BGP peer, and stays in the Connect state.
While in the Connect State, the router software ignores a Start event. In response to any
other event, the router software releases all BGP resources allocated to this connection and
transitions to the Idle State.
Note:
BGP events 52/72 through 52/77 trace the transitions of the BGP Finite
State Machine (FSM).
