Hi !!!

I have configured 2 iBGP peers in Bird and they are using same "export filter". I am getting strange case.when i disable export filter of BGP peer from bird configuration file and issue reload command of that specific protocol, the route is not removed in BRP peers and "sgow protocol all" of that bgp still shows that it is exporting routes.

normal configuration:

protocol bgp aa {
                local  as my_as;
                neighbor X.X.X.X as my_as;
                source address y.y.y.y;
                multihop 3;
                import all;
                export filter r_test;
                    &nbs! p;   }

protocol bgp bb {
                local  as my_as;
                neighbor Z.Z.Z.Z as my_as;
                source address y.y.y.y;
                multihop 3;
                import all;
                export filter r_test;
                        }

After Change

protocol bgp aa {
                local  as my_as;
                neighbor X.X.X.X as my_as;
                source address y.y.y.y;
                multihop 3;
                import all;
                export filter r_test;
                        }

protocol bgp bb {
                local  as my_as;
                neighbor Z.Z.Z.Z as my_as;
                source address y.y.y.y;
                multihop 3;
                import all;
   #            export filter r_test;
                        }



then i issued " reload all bb" but still "bb" is receiving old routes.But when is restarted bird service then after BGP got up, then  "bb" did not got route.

Can you assist what i am missing to do?
