Start-BgpPeer

Starts routing sessions for BGP peers.

Syntax

Start-BgpPeer
     [-RoutingDomain <String>]
     [-Name] <String[]>
     [-CimSession <CimSession[]>]
     [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>]
     [-AsJob]
     [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Start-BgpPeer cmdlet starts routing sessions for Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) peers. Use the Stop-BgpPeer cmdlet to stop a routing session. By default, when you add a peer by using the Add-BgpPeer cmdlet, exchange of route information begins immediately. If you add a peer in manual peering mode, use this cmdlet to start the session.

Examples

Example 1: Start a routing session

PS C:\> Start-BgpPeer -Name "Site17"

This command starts a BGP routing session for the BGP router named Site17.

Example 2: Start a routing session in a multitenant environment

PS C:\> Start-BgpPeer -Name "Tenant22" -RoutingDomain "Rd001"

This command starts a routing session for the peer named Tenant22 in the specified routing domain of a multitenant environment.

Parameters

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-CimSession

Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.

Type:CimSession[]
Aliases:Session
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Name

Specifies an array of names. The cmdlet starts routing sessions for the named peers.

Type:String[]
Aliases:PeerList, PeerId, PeerName
Position:1
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-RoutingDomain

Specifies the name of the routing domain as a string. The name is a unique, for the multitenant gateway, user-defined alphanumeric string.

Type:String
Aliases:RoutingDomainName
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ThrottleLimit

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, then Windows PowerShell® calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
