Hello Peter,

did you already report this bug / feature request to foundry?

This is as annoying as the problem with new bgp neighbors:
After configuring a new bgp neighbor with "nei 1.2.3.4 remote-as 123" the mlx automatically starts to bringt the session up which is a problem because you don't have a chance to configure route-maps first.
Cisco is expecting the user to use the command "nei 1.2.3.4 activate" or "no nei
1.2.3.4 shut" once so that the router knows that the configuration has been completed.

I hope that foundry is going to implement this feature soon...

Regards,
Gunther
