TABLE 105

Field

Description

Origin

The source of the route information. The origin can be one 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.
• b - NOT-INSTALLED-BEST - BGP4+ has determined that this is the optimal route to

the destination but did not install it in the IPv6 route table because the device
received better routes from other sources (such as OSPFv3, RIPng, or static IPv6
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.

• EGP - The routes with this set of attributes came to BGP4+ through EGP.
• H - HISTORY. Route dampening is configured for this route, and the route has a

history of flapping and is unreachable now.

• IGP - The routes with this set of attributes came to BGP4+ through IGP.
• L - LOCAL. The route originated on this device.
• 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
IPv6 route table.

• S - SUPPRESSED. This route was suppressed during aggregation and thus is not

advertised to neighbors.

Adj_RIB_out count

The number of neighbors to which the route has been or will be advertised. This is the
number of times the route has been selected as the best route and placed in the Adj-
RIB-Out (outbound queue) for a BGP4+ neighbor.

Admin Distance

The administrative distance of the route.

Syntax: show ipv6 bgp routes detail [ ipv6-prefix/prefix-length | table-entry-number | age seconds |
as-path-access-list name | as-path-filter number | best | cidr-only | [ community number | no-

You can use the following options with the show ipv6 bgp routes detail command to determine the
content of the display.

The ipv6-prefix and prefix-length options display details about routes for a specific network. You must
specify the ipv6-prefix parameter in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented
