Example Concept: BGP convergence time can be improved by reducing the BGP keepalive and hold timers, which decreases the time it takes to detect a downed peer. Additionally, enabling BGP route dampening can prevent route flapping, and using route reflectors can reduce the number of BGP sessions required, thus speeding up convergence. Implementing BGP Graceful Restart can also help maintain routing stability during a restart by preserving forwarding state temporarily.
