BGP Operational Commands

BGP Show Commands

The BGP show commands provide detailed information about the BGP protocol operation and BGP routes.

BGP Summary

This command displays BGP protocol parameters like attributes or timers that are generic to the BGP instance.

Syntax:

show bgp summary <option>

Option Description

-

Without any option, the commands displays the information for all instances.

instance <instance-name>

BGP Peer

The 'show bgp peer' commands display information on BGP peers.

Syntax:

show bgp peer <option> …​

Option Description

-

Without any option, the commands display all BGP peers in all instances in a summary table format.

detail

Detailed information on all BGP peers in all instances in a list view.

<peer-name>

Detailed information on the peer with the given name.

address <peer-address>

Detailed information on the peer with the given IP address.

instance <instance-name>

Summary of all BGP peers in the given instance.

instance <instance-name> detail

Detailed information on all BGP peers in the given instance.

instance <instance-name> detail <peer-name>

Detailed information on the peer with the given name in the given instance.

instance <instance-name> detail address <peer-address>

Detailed information on the peer with the given IP address in the given instance.

statistics

Received and sent BGP prefixes per AFI/SAFI for all peers in all instances.

statistics peer <peer-name>

Received and sent BGP prefixes per AFI/SAFI for the peer with the given name.

statistics peer address <peer-address>

Received and sent BGP prefixes per AFI/SAFI for the peer with the given IP address.

statistics instance <instance-name> peer <peer-name>

Received and sent BGP prefixes per AFI/SAFI for the peer with the given name in the given instance.

statistics instance <instance-name> peer address <peer-address>

Received and sent BGP prefixes per AFI/SAFI for the peer with the given IP address in the given instance.

Although 6PE routes are labeled, they are handled as unicast routes, and therefore will be shown as IPv6 unicast in the BGP peer statistics.
