Net::BGP::Refresh - Class encapsulating BGP-4 REFRESH message use Net::BGP::Refresh; $refresh = Net::BGP::Refresh->new( AFI => $address_family_identifier, SAFI => $subsequent_address_family_identifier ); $address_family_identifier = $error->afi(); $subsequent_address_family_identifier = $error->safi(); $peer->refresh($refresh); This module encapsulates the data contained in a BGP-4 REFRESH message as specifed by RFC2918. It provides a constructor, and accessor methods for each of the fields, AFI and SAFI, of a REFRESH message. To refresh the route table for a given address family, call the peer object's refresh() function with a Net::BGP::Refresh object as argument. new() - create a new Net::BGP::Refresh object $error = Net::BGP::Refresh->new( AFI => $address_family_identifier, SAFI => $subsequent_address_family_identifier ); This is the constructor for Net::BGP::Refresh objects. It returns a reference to the newly created object. The following named parameters may be passed to the constructor.

AFI
This parameter corresponds to the Address Family Identifier field of a REFRESH message. Default is AFI_IP4.

SAFI
This parameter corresponds to the Subsequent Address Family Identifier field of a REFRESH message. Default is SAFI_BOTH. afi() - retrieve the value of the Address Family Identifier field $address_family_identifier = $error->afi(); safi() - retrieve the value of the Subsequent Address Family Identifier field $subsequent_address_family_identifier = $error->safi(); Net::BGP, Net::BGP::Process, Net::BGP::Peer, Net::BGP::Notification, Net::BGP::Update Stephen J.
