Displaying BGP4 information
26
Syntax: show ip bgp [route] <ip-addr>/<prefix> [longer-prefixes] | <ip-addr>
If you use the route option, the display for the information is different, as shown in the following 
example.
These displays show the following information.
TABLE 129 BGP4 network information
This field... Displays...
Number of BGP Routes matching 
display condition
The number of routes that matched the display parameters you entered.  
This is the number of routes displayed by the command.
Status codes A list of the characters the display uses to indicate the route’s status.  
The status code appears in the left column of the display, to the left of 
each route.  The status codes are described in the command’s output.
NOTE: This field appears only if you do not enter the route option.
Prefix The network address and prefix.
Next Hop The next-hop router for reaching the network from the device.
Metric The value of the route’s MED attribute.  If the route does not have a 
metric, this field is blank.
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 router associates with routes from a specific 
neighbor. For example, if the router receives routes to the same 
destination from two BGP4 neighbors, the router prefers the route from 
the neighbor with the larger weight.
