Command Changes
There are no command changes for this enhancement.
6 path type has external AS numbers in its AS path, rather than a
route that has AS confederation sets or sequences in its
AS path. Routes with external AS numbers are
considered external paths; routes with AS confederation
sets or sequences are internal paths.
Note that candidate routes’ AS paths only contain EBGP
and confederation AS numbers, because BGP drops
routes with the local AS path in their path list.
7 next_hop attribute has the minimum cost to the next hop specified in the
next_hop attribute. Deciding the cost involves looking
into the IP route table.
8 router ID it learned from the peer with the lowest router ID. The
peer’s router ID is determined by the following rules:
• If the peer has been configured with a router ID by
using the command set bgp routerid=ipadd, that
address is used as its router ID.
• Otherwise, if a local IP address has been set for the
peer, that address is used as its router ID.
• Otherwise, if neither has been set, the highest IP
address configured on any of the peer’s interfaces is
used as its router ID.
9 cluster list has the shortest cluster list. The cluster list attribute only
exists within Autonomous Systems that use route
reflection, so if the router or switch’s AS does not use
route reflection, the cluster list is treated as having a
length of zero.
10 neighbour address it learned from the peer with the lowest neighbour IP
address. The neighbour IP address is the address that the
peer uses for the TCP connection that supports the peer
session. For more information about the address routers
or switches use, see How to Set the IP Address that
Identifies the Switch in the BGP chapter of the Software
Reference.
Rule For this... the router or switch chooses the route that...
