OK, That's why I see BGP session reset on the new Backup RE but not on the new master because of resync process and we can say this behaviour is normal. But why the BFD, ISIS sessions was reset on the new master and affected neighbours state?

The BGP on the neighbor routers didn't flap, but ISIS, BFD session > flapped on the neighbors. That is how NSR is supposed to work. When running NSR, the backup RE is pre-synchronized to the state of the active RE, so when you do a switchover the BGP session appears to be uninterrupted. At some point after the switchover is completed, the new backup RE should sync up in the same way, but it won't be instant. BTW if I were you I'm not sure that I would be running NSR in production on 9.4R2. I've seen a lot of bugs related to it (and even related to GRES, ever since around 9.1+ it has been very sketchy for me) which can cause disruptions or even blackholing within packet forwarding when "something" happens on the backup RE. LDP sessions resetting whenever the backup RE was rebooted was extremely annoying. :) -- Richard A Steenbergen <[email protected]> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC) __________ Information from ESET Smart Security, version of virus signature database 4223 (20090708) __________ The message was checked by ESET Smart Security. http://www.eset.com __________ Information from ESET Smart Security, version of virus signature database 4223 (20090708) __________ The message was checked by ESET Smart Security. http://www.eset.com _______________________________________________ juniper-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
