To administratively shutdown a BGP neighbor in a Cisco router, issue a neighbor <BGP PEER IP> shutdown command under the BGP routing process. This will stop the BGP route exchange with the BGP neighbor/peer and it's often useful when performing a maintenance such as policy change with the peer/upstream ISP.

BGP neighbor is 62.19.10.16, remote AS 700, external link
Description: ISP
Administratively shut down
BGP version 4, remote router ID 0.0.0.0
BGP state = Idle, down for 00:00:43
Neighbor sessions:
0 active, is not multisession capable (disabled)
Stateful switchover support enabled: NO
Do log neighbor state changes (via global configuration)
Default minimum time between advertisement runs is 30 seconds
<OUTPUT TRUNCATED>
To re-enable the BGP neighbor, just use the 'no' form of the said command.
