Viewing BGP L2VPN VPLS routes for a particular IP route address

The show ip bgp l2vpn vpls IP route address command displays the BGP L2VPN VPLS routes for a
particular IP route address.

mu2(config-lbif-1)# show ip bgp l2vpn vpls 10.1.1.1

Total number of BGP L2VPN VPLS Routes: 1

Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i internal, S

Origin codes

A list of the characters the display uses to indicate the route’s origin. The
origin code appears to the right of the AS path (Path field).
The origin code can be one of the following:

i - IGP – The routes with this set of attributes came to BGP4+
through IGP

e - EGP – The routes with this set of attributes came to BGP4+
through EGP.

? - incomplete – The routes came from an origin other than IGP or
EGP. For example, they may have been redistributed from OSPF or
RIP.

NOTE: When BGP4 compares multiple routes to a destination to select

the best route, IGP is preferred over EGP and both are preferred
over INCOMPLETE.

Route Distinguisher

A unique ID that is prepended on any address being routed or advertised
from a Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) instance. The RD can be
defined as either ASN-relative or IP address-relative as described:

ASN-relative - Composed of the local ASN number followed by a “:”
(colon) and a unique arbitrary number. For example: 3:6

IP address-relative - Composed of the local IP address followed by a
“:” (colon) and a unique arbitrary number.

Network

The IP address and network mask of the destination network of the
route.

Next Hop

The IP address of the next-hop router.

Metric

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

LocPrf

The degree of preference for this route relative to other routes in the
local AS. When the BGP4+ algorithm compares routes on the basis of
local preferences, the route with the higher local preference is chosen.
The preference can have a value from 0 – 4294967295.

Weight

The value that this route associates with routes from a specific neighbor.
For example, when the Brocade device receives routes to the same
destination from two BGP4 neighbors, the device prefers the route from
the neighbor with the larger weight

Path

The AS path for the route.
