Commands to switch between displays may be abbreviated to the minimum unambiguous prefix; for example, .Cm s s for .Cm show summary . .Pp The options are as follows: .Bl -tag -width Ds .It Fl n Show neighbors' IP-addresses instead of their description. .El .Pp The commands are as follows: .Bl -tag -width xxxxxx .It Cm fib couple Insert the learned routes into the Forward Information Base a.k.a. the kernel routing table. .It Cm fib decouple Remove the learned routes from the Forward Information Base a.k.a. the kernel routing table. .It Cm neighbor Ar address Cm up Take the BGP session to the specified neighbor up. .It Cm neighbor Ar address Cm down Take the BGP session to the specified neighbor down. .It Cm neighbor Ar address Cm clear Stop and restart the BGP session to the specified neighbor. .It Cm network add Ar prefix Add the specified prefix to the list of announced networks. .It Cm network delete Ar prefix Remove the specified prefix from the list of announced networks. .It Cm network flush Remove all dynamically added prefixes from the list of announced networks. .It Cm network show Show all announced networks. .It Cm reload Reload the configuration file. .It Cm show fib Ar filter Show routes from .Xr bgpd 8 Ns 's view of the Forward Information Base. .Ar filter can be an IP address, in which case the route to this address is shown, or a flag: .Pp .Bl -tag -width connected -compact .It Cm connected Show only connected routes. .It Cm static Show only static routes. .It Cm bgp Show only routes originating from .Xr bgpd 8 itself. .It Cm nexthop Show only routes required to reach a BGP nexthop. .El .It Cm show interfaces Show the interface states. .It Cm show neighbor Ar address modifier Show detailed information about the neighbor identified by .Ar address , according to the given .Ar modifier : .Pp .Bl -tag -width messages -compact .It Cm messages Show statistics about sent and received BGP messages. .It Cm timers Show the BGP timers. .El .It Cm show nexthop Show the list of BGP nexthops and the result of their validity check. .It Cm show rib Ar filter Show routes from the .Xr bgpd 8 Routing Information Base. .Ar filter can be an IP address, a CIDR prefix, an AS filter or nothing: .Pp .Bl -tag -width "address/len all" -compact .It Ar address Show best matching route for address. .It Ar address Ns Li / Ns Ar len Show RIB entry for this CIDR prefix. .It Xo .Ar address Ns Li / Ns Ar len .Cm all .Xc Show all entries in the specified range. .\".It Ar address/len Cm longer-prefixes .It Cm as Ar as Show all entries with .Ar as anywhere in the AS path. .It Cm source-as Ar as Show all entries with .Ar as as rightmost AS. .It Cm transit-as Ar as Show all entries with .Ar as anywhere but rightmost. .It Cm empty-as Show all entries that are internal routes with no AS's in the AS path. .It Cm summary This is the same as the .Ic show summary command. .El .It Cm show summary Show a list of all neighbors, including information about the session state and message counters. .El .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width "/etc/bgpd.conf" -compact .It Pa /etc/bgpd.conf default .Xr bgpd 8 configuration file .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr bgpd.conf 5 , .Xr bgpd 8 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm program first appeared in .Ox 3.5 .
