Table 216: show bgp summary Output Fields (continued)
Field Name Field Description
History Number of withdrawn routes stored locally to keep track of damping history.
Damp State Number of routes with a figure of merit greater than zero, but still active because the value has not
reached the threshold at which suppression occurs.
Routes in process by BGP import policy.
Pending
Address of each BGP peer. Each peer has one line of output.
Peer
Peer's AS number.
AS
Number of packets received from the peer.
InPkt
Number of packets sent to the peer.
OutPkt
OutQ Count of the number of BGP packets that are queued to be transmitted to a particular neighbor. It
normally is
Number of times the BGP session has gone down and then come back up.
Flaps
Last Up/Down Last time since the neighbor transitioned to or from the established state.
State|#Active Multipurpose field that displays information about BGP peer sessions. The field's contents depend
upon whether a session is established and whether an established session was established in the
/Received/Accepted
main routing device or in a routing instance.
/Damped
because the queue usually is emptied quickly.
0
If a peer is not established, the field shows the state of the peer session:
If a BGP session is established in the main routing device, the field shows the number of active,
received, accepted, and damped routes that are received from a neighbor and appear in the
(main) and (multicast) routing tables. For example,
inet.2
following:
8 active routes, 10 received routes, 10 accepted routes, and 2 damped routes from a BGP peer
appear in the routing table.
inet.0
2 active routes, 4 received routes, 4 accepted routes, and no damped routes from a BGP peer
appear in the routing table.
inet.2
If a BGP session is established in a routing instance, the field indicates the established
state, identifies the specific routing table that receives BGP updates, and shows the number of
active, received, and damped routes that are received from a neighbor. For example,
VPN-AB.inet.0: 2/4/0 indicates the following:
The BGP session is established.
Routes are received in the
The local routing device has two active routes, four received routes, and no damped routes from
a BGP peer.
When a BGP session is established, the peers are exchanging update messages.
