Description

We need to standardize the names of the logical system. We need to know if this chance is going to cause any flap on the services associated to the logical systems.

Symptoms

The customer is running some services such as BGP, OSPF, RSVP, MPLS under logical-systems.

Need to confirm if a change on the name would cause any impact

Solution

Based on the lab done, all the mentioned protocols will flap after renaming the logical system:

 

labroot@tacitus-re0# run show bgp summary logical-system Test5

Threading mode: BGP I/O

Default eBGP mode: advertise - accept, receive - accept

Groups: 1 Peers: 1 Down peers: 0

And here is when I rename the logical system to Test1:

 

labroot@tacitus-re0# rename logical-systems Test5 to Test1
