Monitoring BGP Next Hops
Purpose Display information about all indirect next hops or a particular next hop..
The show ip bgp next-hops and show bgp ipv6 next-hops commands display similar
information.
Action To display information about all indirect next hops or a particular indirect next hop:
host1#show ip bgp next-hops

Reachable (metric 2)
Direct next-hop atm2/0.34 (34.34.34.4)
Reference count is 3
Indirect next-hop ::ffff:2.2.2.2
MPLS stacked label 17
Reachable (metric 3)
Direct next-hop tun mpls:vpnInL17-23
Reference count is 1
