route-assert-mode

Places CNA in route-assert mode.

Syntax
route-assert-mode
 
no route-assert-mode
 
Prerequisites

Must be in engine configuration mode (config-engine), which requires privileged-level access.

Default

Route-assert mode is off.

Description

When route-assert mode is on, CNA will assert its preferred route (based on its analysis of user traffic tests) to its BGP peers as the best path for a given prefix.

When route-assert mode is off, best-path decisions are not asserted to routers, but are calculated for reporting purposes only.

Use the no form of the command to revert to the default.

Whenever you disable route-assert mode, all asserted routes are withdrawn but measurements and measurement counts will be retained in the database. When you re-enable route-assert mode, CNA will resume the decision making process immediately.

Use the clear prefix command to withdraw existing route assertions without disabling route assertion.
