Hello Anazawa-san,

Greeting from Hibiya. I have experience of work with Nagai-san at your company before.

BTW, I guess that what you want is ‘disable’ in birdc.

https://bird.network.cz/?get_doc&v=20&f=bird-4.html says

enable|disable|restart name|"pattern"|all

Enable, disable or restart a given protocol instance, instances matching the pattern or all instances.

and acts like

bird> sh proto

Name Proto Table State Since Info

device1 Device --- up 2019-10-08

v4:exabgp BGP --- up 2019-10-08 Established

v6:exabgp BGP --- up 2019-10-08 Established

v4:VyOS3 BGP --- up 2019-10-08 Established

v6:VyOS3 BGP --- up 2019-10-08 Established

bird> disable "v4:VyOS3"

v4:VyOS3: disabled

bird> sh proto

Subject: BGP neighbor shutdown

Hello,

Is there a way to shut down a particular BGP neighbor?

Equivalent to Cisco's "neighbor 10.0.0.1 shutdown" command

With best regards,

Anazawa Masatsune
