Displaying BGP4 route-attribute entries

The route-attribute entries table lists the sets of BGP4 attributes stored in device memory. Each set of
attributes is unique and can be associated with one or more routes. In fact, the device typically has
fewer route attribute entries than routes.

To display the IP route table, enter the following command.

device# show ip bgp attribute-entries

Syntax: show ip bgp attribute-entries

This example shows the information displayed by this command. A zero value indicates that the
attribute is not set.

device# show ip bgp attribute-entries

Total number of BGP Attribute Entries: 7753

TABLE 101

This field

Displays

Total number of BGP4
Attribute Entries

The number of routes contained in this BGP4 route table.

Next Hop

The IP address of the next-hop device for routes that have this set of attributes.

Metric

The cost of the routes that have this set of attributes.

Origin

The source of the route information. The origin can be one of the following:

• EGP - The routes with these attributes came to BGP4 through EGP.
• IGP - The routes with these attributes came to BGP4 through IGP.
• INCOMPLETE - The routes came from an origin other than one of the above. For

example, they may have been redistributed from OSPF or RIP.

When BGP4 compares multiple routes to a destination to select the best route, IGP is
preferred over EGP and both are preferred over INCOMPLETE.

Originator

The originator of the route in a route reflector environment.

Cluster List

The route-reflector clusters through which this set of attributes has passed.

Aggregator

Aggregator information:

• AS Number shows the AS in which the network information in the attribute set was

aggregated. This value applies only to aggregated routes and is otherwise 0.

• Router-ID shows the device that originated this aggregator.
