Adding/deleting a route from a redistribution profile causes application drop

L2 Linker

I have an issue where I have a redistribution profile configured.  We'll call it Redist_Profile_A and in there I have static routes that I'm advertising into BGP.  I create the static route, add it to the redistribution profile Redist_Profile_A, to my export route-map and when I go to commit the rule my application for Vendor B bounces.  I never lose BGP with Vendor B but the application bounces all the time.  Has anyone seen anything like this?

Wow, didn't read that before posting it.  Long story short.  I create a static route that needs to be advertised into BGP.  So I get the static route for Vendor A configured and then I add it to the Redistribution Profile.  My PA is BGP neighbor with a route-reflector and so I add the route/prefix to the export map and then commit the changes.  Vendor B has an application that never comes into touch with a redistibution profile but when I commit the route/prefix change (adding or deleting) it causes that application to bounce.  I have never lost my bgp neighbor with Vendor B.  The routing fib for that peer never shows a drop or change in topology and the bgp neighbor has been established for quite some time.  I know there's route convergence and I do have a ticket with PA TAC and Engineering is looking into it but me adding/deleting a route/prefix from a redistribution profile for Vendor A shouldn't cause application from Vendor B to bounce.  

Hey Johnsonto
I have the same issue, so I was wondering if the PA TAC team provide any updates about this issue.

Thank you.
