Action Commands

nv action

Resets counters for interfaces, BGP, QoS buffers and pools, removes conflicts from protodown MLAG bonds, and disconnects system users.

nv action clear interface counters

Clears all interface-specific counters from all interfaces. Interface counters provide information about an interface, such as the number of packets intentionally or intentionally dropped, the number of inbound and outbound packets discarded even though the switch detected no errors, the number of inbound and outbound packets not transmitted because of errors, and so on.

This command does not clear counters in the kernel or hardware.

Version History

Introduced in Cumulus Linux 5.5.0

Example

cumulus@switch:~$ nv action clear interface counters

nv action clear interface <interface> bond mlag lacp-conflict

Clears the MLAG LACP conflict on the specified interface bond. A conflict can be an LACP partner MAC address mismatch or a duplicate LACP partner MAC address.

Example

cumulus@switch:~$ nv action clear vrf default router bgp peer-group SPINES address-family ipv6-unicast out

nv action clear vrf <vrf-id> router bgp peer-group <peer-group-id> address-family ipv6-unicast soft in

Clears IPv6 inbound routes for a specific BGP peer group in the specified VRF.

This command does not clear counters in the kernel or hardware and does not reset BGP neighbor adjacencies.

• When the switch has a neighbor configured with soft-reconfiguration inbound enabled, this command clears the routes in the soft reconfiguration table for the address family. This results in reevaluating routes in the BGP table against any applied input policies.
• When the switch has a neighbor configured without the soft-reconfiguration inbound option enabled, this command sends the peer a route refresh message.
• If you do not specify the direction in, the command affects both inbound and outbound routes depending on whether soft-reconfiguration inbound is enabled.

Example

cumulus@switch:~$ nv action clear vrf default router bgp peer-group SPINES address-family ipv6-unicast soft in

nv action clear vrf <vrf-id> router bgp peer-group <peer-group-id> address-family ipv6-unicast soft out

Clears IPv6 outbound routes for a specific BGP peer group in the specified VRF.

This command does not:

• Clear counters in the kernel or hardware.
• Reset BGP neighbor adjacencies.
• Readvertise all routes to BGP peers.

If you do not specify the direction out, the command affects both inbound and outbound routes depending on whether soft-reconfiguration inbound is enabled.
