Output for the show ip bgp l2vpn vpls attribute-entries command

This field...

Displays

Total number of BGP Attribute
Entries

The number of routes contained in this device’s BGP L2VPN VPLS route
table.

Next Hop

The IP address of the next hop router 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 this set of attributes came to BGP through EGP.

IGP – The routes with this set of attributes came to BGP 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.

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.

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 router that originated this aggregator.

Atomic

Indicates whether the network information in this set of attributes has been
aggregated and this aggregation has resulted in information loss.
NOTE: Information loss under these circumstances is a normal part of BGP4

and does not indicate an error.

Local Pref

other routes in the local AS.

Communities

The communities to which routes with this set of attributes belong.
