BGP v4 MIB Tables

Table B-17 BGP-4 Received Path Attribute Table (continued)

Field

Description

 

 

bgp4PathAttrASPathSegment

The sequence of AS path segments. Each AS path segment is represented by a triple

 

<type, length, value>.

 

The type is a 1-octet field which has two possible values:

 

• AS_SET: unordered set of ASs a route in the UPDATE messages has traversed.

 

• AS_SEQUENCE: ordered set of ASs a route in the UPDATE messages has traversed.

 

The length is a 1-octet field containing the number of ASs in the value field. The value

 

field contains one or more AS numbers. Each AS is represented in the octet string as a

 

pair of octets according to the following algorithm:

 

first-byte-of-pair = ASNumber / 256;

 

second-byte-of-pair = ASNumber & 255;

 

 

bgp4PathAttrNextHop

The address of the border router that should be used for the destination network.

 

 

bgp4PathAttrMultiExitDisc

This metric discriminates between multiple exit points to an adjacent AS, ranging from 1

 

to 2147483647. A value of -1 indicates the absence of this attribute.

 

 

bgp4PathAttrLocalPref

The originating BGP4 speaker's degree of preference for an advertised route, ranging

 

from 1 to 2147483647. A value of -1 indicates the absence of this attribute.

 

 

bgp4PathAttrAtomicAggregate

Whether or not the local system has selected a less specific route without selecting a

 

more specific route.

 

 

bgp4PathAttrAggregatorAS

The AS number of the last BGP4 speaker that performed route aggregation, ranging

 

from 0 -65535. A value of zero (0) indicates the absence of this attribute.

 

 

bgp4PathAttrAggregatorAddr

The IP address of the last BGP4 speaker that performed route aggregation. A value of

 

0.0.0.0 indicates the absence of this attribute.

 

 

bgp4PathAttrCalcLocalPref

The degree of preference calculated by the receiving BGP4 speaker for an advertised

 

route, ranging from 1 to 2147483647. A value of -1 indicates the absence of this

 

attribute.

 

 

bgp4PathAttrBest

An indication of whether or not this route was chosen as the BGP4 route.

 

 

bgp4PathAttrUnknown

One or more path attributes not understood by this BGP4 speaker. Range: 0-255. Size

 

zero (0) indicates the absence of such attribute(s). Octets beyond the maximum size, if

 

any, are not recorded by this object.
