Withdrawing a prefix should propagate across Cloudflare's global network almost instantly, with changes typically taking effect within a few minutes at most. However, Cloudflare has no control over how long ISPs take to refresh their routes. Keep this in mind when announcing or withdrawing a prefix from your account, and plan accordingly.

## Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) control for advertisements

Use BGP to control the advertisement status of your prefix — advertised or withdrawn — from Cloudflare’s global network for on-demand deployment scenarios. BGP Control works by establishing BGP sessions to Cloudflare’s globally distributed Route Reflectors, which will initiate propagation of your prefix advertisement across Cloudflare's global network.

Prefixes can be advertised from Cloudflare’s network in a supported on-demand method such as BGP Control, or dynamically via the UI, API, or [Magic Network Monitoring](/magic-transit/magic-network-monitoring/). During the onboarding of your on-demand prefixes, please specify whether you want BGP-controlled advertisement or dynamic advertisement (via dashboard/API/Magic Network Monitoring).

Magic Transit requires static routing to steer traffic from Cloudflare’s network over one of your configured tunnel off-ramps (GRE, IPsec or CNI). Currently, advertisement of routes for traffic engineering purposes is not supported. As a best practice to reduce last-hop latency, you should consider scoping your routes regionally. The default setting for static route regions is **All Regions**. Refer to [Configure static routes](/magic-transit/how-to/configure-static-routes/) for more information.
