30 Displaying BGP4 information TABLE 189 BGP4 network information (Continued) Field Description Weight Path Origin code Status The value that this router associates with routes from a specific neighbor. For example, if the router receives routes to the same destination from two BGP4 neighbors, the router prefers the route from the neighbor with the larger weight. The route AS path. NOTE: This field appears only if you do not enter the route option. A character the display uses to indicate the route origin. The origin code appears to the right of the AS path (Path field). The origin codes are described in the command output. NOTE: This field appears only if you do not enter the route option. The route status, which can be one or more of the following: • A - AGGREGATE. The route is an aggregate route for multiple networks. • B - BEST. BGP4 has determined that this is the optimal route to the destination. NOTE: If the "b" is shown in lowercase, the software was not able to install the route in the IP route table. • b - NOT-INSTALLED-BEST. The routes received from the neighbor are the best BGP4 routes to their destinations, but were nonetheless not installed in the IP route table because the Layer 3 Switch received better routes from other sources (such as OSPF, RIP, or static IP routes). • C - CONFED_EBGP. The route was learned from a neighbor in the same confederation and AS, but in a different sub-AS within the confederation. • D - DAMPED. This route has been dampened (by the route dampening feature), and is currently unusable. • H - HISTORY. Route dampening is configured for this route, and the route has a history of flapping and is unreachable now. • I - INTERNAL. The route was learned through BGP4. • L - LOCAL. The route originated on this Layer 3 Switch. • M - MULTIPATH. BGP4 load sharing is enabled and this route was selected as one of the best ones to the destination. The best route among the multiple paths also is marked with "B". NOTE: If the "m" is shown in lowercase, the software was not able to install the route in the IP route table. • S - SUPPRESSED. This route was suppressed during aggregation and thus is not advertised to neighbors. NOTE: This field appears only if you enter the route option. Displaying route details Here is an example of the information displayed when you use the detail option. In this example, the information for one route is shown.
