Displaying BGP4+ information

Syntax: show ipv6 bgp neighbor ipv6-address flap-statistics

The ipv6-address parameter displays the route flap dampening statistics for a specified neighbor.
You must specify this address in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between colons as documented
in RFC 2373.

This display shows the following information.

You also can display all the dampened routes by using the show ipv6 bgp dampened-paths
command. For more information, refer to

“Displaying dampened BGP4+ paths”

on page 329.

Displaying last error packet from a BGP4+ neighbor

You can display information about the last packet that contained an error from any of a Virtual ADX
device’s neighbors. The displayed information includes the error packet's contents decoded in a
human-readable format.

For example, to display information about the last error packet from any of a Virtual ADX device’s
neighbors, enter the following command.

Syntax: show ipv6 bgp neighbor last-packet-with-error

This display shows the following information.

TABLE 13

Route flap dampening statistics for a BGP4+ neighbor

This field...

Displays...

Total number of flapping routes The total number of routes in the neighbor’s BGP4+ route table that have

changed state and thus have been marked as flapping routes.

Status code

Indicates the status of the route, which can be one of the following:

> – This is the best route among those in the neighbor’s BGP4+ route
table to the route’s destination.

d – This route is currently dampened, and thus unusable.

h – The route has a history of flapping and is unreachable now.

* – The route has a history of flapping but is currently usable.

Network

The destination network of the route.

From

The IPv6 address of the advertising peer.

Flaps

The number of flaps (state changes) the route has experienced.

Since

The amount of time (in hh:mm:ss) since the first flap of this route.

Reuse

The amount of time (in hh:mm:ss) after which the path is again available.

Path

The AS path of the route.

TABLE 14

Last error packet information for BGP4+ neighbors

This field...

Displays...

Total number of BGP Neighbors

The total number of configured neighbors for a Virtual ADX device.

Last error

The error packet’s contents decoded in a human-readable format or
notification that no packets with an error were received.

Virtual ADX# show ipv6 bgp neighbor last-packet-with-error

Total number of BGP Neighbors: 266

No received packet with error logged for any neighbor
