By default, VRP requires manual operation to resend an Update message to the neighbor after the BGP neighbor's egress routing policy (route-policy) changes.

Explanation

Option B is correct because in Huawei VRP, when an egress (outbound) routing policy changes, the router automatically re-evaluates and resends BGP UPDATE messages to the affected neighbor - no manual refresh bgp or hard reset command is needed. VRP can handle outbound policy changes automatically because the local device already holds the routes it needs to re-advertise; it simply re-applies the new policy and pushes the updates out.

Option A (TRUE) is wrong because it incorrectly implies manual intervention is required, which conflates egress policy behavior with ingress policy behavior. Ingress policy changes do typically require a manual Route Refresh request (or hard reset) because the local router must ask the peer to resend its routes for re-evaluation.

Memory tip: Think of it as "outbound = your routes, your control" - VRP can act immediately without asking anyone else. Ingress is the reverse: you need the peer to cooperate and resend, so that often needs a manual trigger.
