+# CLI Operations
+
+This page explains comprehensive examples of operations via GoBGP CLI.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Assumed that you finished [Getting Started](https://github.com/osrg/gobgp/blob/master/docs/sources/getting-started.md).
+
+## Configuration
+
+This example starts with the same configuration with [Getting Started](https://github.com/osrg/gobgp/blob/master/docs/sources/getting-started.md)
+
+Make sure that all the peers are connected.
+
+```
+$ gobgp show neighbors
+Peer AS Up/Down State |#Advertised Received Accepted
+10.0.255.1 65001 00:00:04 Establ | 2 2 2
+10.0.255.2 65002 00:00:04 Establ | 2 2 2
+```
+
+## Adding or deleting a peer dynamically
+
+You can add a new peer or delete the existing peer without stopping
+GoBGP daemon. You can do such by adding a new peer configuration or
+deleting the existing configuration of a peer in your configuration
+file and sending `HUP` signal to GoBGP daemon.
+
+In this example, 10.0.255.3 peer is added. The configuration file
+should be like the following.
+
+```
+[Global]
+ As = 64512
+ RouterId = "192.168.255.1"
+[[NeighborList]]
+ NeighborAddress = "10.0.255.1"
+ PeerAs = 65001
+[[NeighborList]]
+ NeighborAddress = "10.0.255.2"
+ PeerAs = 65002
+[[NeighborList]]
+ NeighborAddress = "10.0.255.3"
+ PeerAs = 65003
+```
+
+After you send `HUP` signal (`kill` command), you should see 10.0.255.3 peer.
+
+```
+$ gobgp show neighbors
+Peer AS Up/Down State |#Advertised Received Accepted
+10.0.255.1 65001 00:03:42 Establ | 3 2 2
+10.0.255.2 65002 00:03:42 Establ | 3 2 2
+10.0.255.3 65003 00:01:39 Establ | 4 1 1
+```
+
+## Temporarily disable a configured peer
+
+Sometime you might want to disable the configured peer without
+removing the configuration for the peer. Likely, again you enable the
+peer later.
+
+```
+$ gobgp disable neighbor 10.0.255.1
+$ gobgp show neighbors
+Peer AS Up/Down State |#Advertised Received Accepted
+10.0.255.1 65001 never Idle(Admin) | 0 0 0
+10.0.255.2 65002 00:12:32 Establ | 1 2 2
+10.0.255.3 65003 00:10:29 Establ | 2 1 1
+```
+
+The state of 10.0.255.1 is `Idle(Admin)`. Let's enable the peer again.
+
+```
+$ gobgp enable neighbor 10.0.255.1
+$ gobgp show neighbors
+Peer AS Up/Down State |#Advertised Received Accepted
+10.0.255.1 65001 never Idle | 0 0 0
+10.0.255.2 65002 00:13:33 Establ | 1 2 2
+10.0.255.3 65003 00:11:30 Establ | 2 1 1
+```
+
+Eventually, the state should be `Established` again.
+
+```
+$ gobgp show neighbors
+Peer AS Up/Down State |#Advertised Received Accepted
+10.0.255.1 65001 00:00:02 Establ | 3 2 2
+10.0.255.2 65002 00:14:59 Establ | 3 2 2
+10.0.255.3 65003 00:12:56 Establ | 4 1 1
+```
+
+## Reset, Reset, and Reset
+
+Various reset operations are supported.
+
+```
+$ gobgp reset neighbor 10.0.255.1
+$ gobgp softreset neighbor 10.0.255.1
+$ gobgp softresetin neighbor 10.0.255.1
+$ gobgp softresetout neighbor 10.0.255.1
