Monitoring BGP Multicast Services

To display values from the BGP multicast routing table, use the show BGP commands
with the ipv4 multicast keyword. For more information about displaying BGP
parameters, see "Monitoring BGP" on page 158.

Using BGP Routes for Other Protocols

You can use the ip route-type or ipv6 route-type command to specify whether BGP
IPv4 or IPv6 unicast routes are available only for unicast routing protocols or for both
unicast and multicast routing protocols to perform RPF checks. Routes available for
unicast routing protocols appear in the unicast view of the routing table, whereas
routes available for multicast routing protocols appear in the multicast view of the
routing table.
Typically you use MP-BGP to learn the RPF routes for multicast protocols, especially
if the topology for multicast networks differs from that for unicast networks. However,
you might use this command if you do not want to run multicast MP-BGP, or if you
are running BGP between CE routers in a given BGP/MPLS VPN (the current
specification does not provide a way to transmit multicast MP-BGP routes across a
BGP/MPLS VPN core).

Using BGP Routes for Other Protocols
Use the no version to indicate that routes of the current address family must not
be exchanged with the peer.
See neighbor activate.
Use to specify whether BGP routes are available for other unicast protocols or
both unicast and multicast protocols.
You cannot specify that BGP routes are available only for multicast protocols.
Use the show ip route or show ipv6 route command to view the routes available
for unicast protocols.
Use the show ip rpf-route or show ipv6 rpf-route command to view the routes
available for multicast protocols. It does not display routes available only to
unicast protocols.
By default, BGP IPv4 and IPv6 unicast routes are available only for other unicast
routing protocols.
