Output Fields

Groups—Number of BGP groups.

Peers—Number of BGP peers.

Down peers—Number of down BGP peers.

Table—Name of routing table.

Tot Paths—Total number of paths.

Act Paths—Number of active routes.

Suppressed—Number of routes currently inactive because of damping or other reasons. These routes do not appear in the forwarding table and are not exported by routing protocols.

History—Number of withdrawn routes stored locally to keep track of damping history.

Damp State—Number of routes with a figure of merit greater than zero, but still active because the value has not reached the threshold at which suppression occurs.

Pending—Routes in process by BGP import policy.

Peer—Address of each BGP peer. Each peer has one line of output.

AS—Peer's AS number.

InPkt—Number of packets received from the peer.

OutPkt—Number of packets sent to the peer.

OutQ—Count of the number of BGP packets that are queued to be transmitted to a particular neighbor. It normally is 0 because the queue usually is emptied quickly.

Flaps—Number of times the BGP session has gone down and then come back up.

Last Up/Down—Last up/down time since the neighbor transitioned to or from the established state.

State|#Active/Received/Damped—A multipurpose field that displays information about BGP peer sessions. The field's contents depend upon whether a session is established and whether an established session was established in the main router or in a routing instance.

When a BGP session is established, the peers are exchanging update messages.
