Exabgpcli command run and stuck

[James Tu]

Hi Team,

I met a strange problem when I tried to use exabgpcli to show some information.

It shows the output but does not return to the bash command prompt.
So, I have to use Ctrl+C to break it.

That's the information shown on the screen.

I never met this problem on other devices that installed Exabgp.

Would you please tell me where I should check next?

Thank you.

Hi Team,

I think I found the reason.

When I set exabgp.api.ack to false, the command would stuck.

Is it the expected behavior?
If so, is any workaround for this?

We would like to set exabgp.api.ack to false and also use the command.

Thank you.

Best regards,
James
