Purpose
Specify fields that are displayed by default by any subsequently issued show ip bgp command that displays the BGP routing table.
You can use the intro keyword to enable the display of introductory information about BGP attributes. The order in which you specify the fields has no effect on the order in which they are displayed.
Action
To specify the default output fields while displaying the BGP routes:
host1:pe2(config-router)#default-fields route intro next-hop med loc-pref weight as-path host1:pe2#show ip bgp vpnv4 all Local BGP identifier 2.2.2.2, local AS 100 6 routes (388 bytes) 7 destinations (560 bytes) of which 0 have a route 0 routes selected for route table installation 6 path attribute entries (936 bytes) Local-RIB version 74.

Meaning
Table 1 lists the show ip bgp command output fields.
Table 1: show ip bgp Output Fields
Local BGP identifier | BGP router ID of the local router |
local AS | Local autonomous system number |
routes | Total number of routes stored in the BGP routing table and amount of memory consumed by routes. If several peers have advertised a route to the same prefix, all routes are included in this count. |
destinations | Number of routes to unique prefixes stored in the BGP routing table and amount of memory consumed by routes. If several peers have advertised a route to the same prefix, only the best route is included in this count. |
routes selected for route table installation | Number of routes in the BGP routing table that have been inserted into the IP routing table, plus prefixes for which there are currently no routes but which have had to be withdrawn from peers to which these prefixes may been previously advertised. |
path attribute entries | Number of distinct path attributes stored in BGP's internal path attributes table. If BGP receives two routes for different prefixes but with identical path attributes, BGP will create only one entry in its internal path attribute table and share it between the two routes to conserve memory. |
Local-RIB version | Number that is increased by one each time a route in that RIB is added, removed or modified. |
FIB version | Number that is increased by one each time BGP updates the routes in the IP routing table based on changes in the local RIB. The FIB version matches the local-RIB version when BGP has finished updating the routes in the IP route table. The FIB version is less than the local-RIB version when BGP is still in the process of updating the IP routing table. |
Prefix | Prefix for the routing table entry |
Peer | Peer from which route was learned |
Next hop IP address | IP address of the next router that is used when a packet is forwarded to the destination network |
MED | Multiexit discriminator for the route |
LocPrf | Local preference for the route |
Weight | Weight of the route |
Origin | Origin of the route |
AS path | AS path through which this route has been advertised |
Communities | Community number associated with the route |
Stale | Routes that have gone stale due to peer restart |
unicast/multicast routes selected for route table installation | Number of unicast routes in the BGP routing table that have been inserted into the IP routing table that are also available for use in the multicast view of the IP routing table |
unicast/multicast tunnel-usable routes selected for route table installation | Number of unicast and multicast routes in the BGP routing table that have been inserted into the IP routing table that are also available for use in the IP tunnel routing table |
tunnel-only routes selected for tunnel-route table installation | Number of routes in the BGP routing table that have been inserted into the IP tunnel routing table |
path attribute entries | Number of distinct path attributes stored in BGP's internal path attributes table. If BGP receives two routes for different prefixes but with identical path attributes, BGP will create only one entry in its internal path attribute table and share it between the two routes to conserve memory. |
Statistics baseline set | Timestamp indicating when the statistics baseline was last set |
