        !            34:        o  Soft reconfiguration, no need to use complex online commands to
        !            35:           change the configuration, just edit the configuration file and notify
        !            36:           BIRD to re-read it and it will smoothly switch itself to the new
        !            37:           configuration, not disturbing routing protocols unless they are
