TABLE 92

This field

Displays

Total number of
flapping routes

The total number of routes in the BGP4 route table that have changed state and have
been marked as flapping routes.

Status code

Indicates the dampening status of the route, which can be one of the following:

• > - This is the best route among those in the BGP4 route table to the route destination.
• d - This route is currently dampened, and unusable.
• h - The route has a history of flapping and is unreachable now.
• * - The route has a history of flapping but is currently usable.

Network

The destination network of the route.

From

The neighbor that sent the route to the device.

Flaps

The number of flaps the route has experienced.

Since

The amount of time since the first flap of this route.

Reuse

The amount of time remaining until this route will be un-suppressed and can be used
again.

Path

Shows the AS-path information for the route.

You also can display all dampened routes by entering the show ip bgp dampened-paths command.

Clearing route flap dampening statistics

Clearing the dampening statistics for a route does not change the dampening status of the route. To
clear all the route dampening statistics, enter the following command at any level of the CLI.

device# clear ip bgp flap-statistics

Syntax: clear ip bgp flap-statistics [ regular-expression regular-expression | address mask |
neighbor ip-addr ]

The parameters are the same as those for the show ip bgp flap-statistics command (except the
longer-prefixes option is not supported).

NOTE
The clear ip bgp dampening command not only clears statistics but also un-suppresses the routes.
