Displays...
Total number of BGP4 Routes
The number of BGP4 routes.
Status codes
A list of the characters that indicate route status. The status code is 
appears in the left column of the display, to the left of each route. The 
status codes are described in the command’s output.
Prefix
The network prefix and mask length.
Status
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 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 not 
installed in the IP route table because the device 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 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 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.
Age
The last time an update occurred.
