Hi,
AFAICS, JunOS allows either:
1) no graceful-restart, no GR helper mode (default)
2) enabling graceful-restart (and helper mode)
What JunOS does _not_ (AFAICS) support is enabling just the helper
mode, but not graceful restart.
This would be extremely useful in the single-RE adjacent routers which
should never do graceful restart themselves (because that could result
in blackholing traffic), but could still assist the dual-RE routers in
their graceful restart.
Have I understood the current features correctly? Is this a feature
others would like to see as well?
