Usage
Information In BGP, route attributes are maintained at different locations. When attributes that
correspond to multiple routes change, then attribute counts that the show ip
bgp summary command displays are calculated as summations of attributes
corresponding to all the associated routes. For example, if cluster_id is an attribute
associated with thousand routes that contain exactly the same set of attributes,
then the cluster_id count is 1. If these thousand routes are set with different
attribute values with the same cluster_id, then the cluster_id count is 1000, since
the same value is stored for thousand different attribute records.
The attribute next-hop is a part of the BGP attribute data structure.
If two peers send the same route that contains similar path attributes, then two
entries are maintained in the back-end, as both these entries have different next-
hops. If this same route is sent to a different peer, an entry for each peer is created,
as the next-hop is different. As a result, the BGP attributes count in the summary
output will differ accordingly.
The following describes the show ip bgp summary command shown in the
following example.
