For the router’s identifier, the system uses the highest IP address of the Loopback interfaces configured. Because Loopback interfaces
are virtual, they cannot go down, thus preventing changes in the router ID. If you do not configure Loopback interfaces, the highest IP
address of any interface is used as the router ID.
To view the status of BGP neighbors, use the show ip bgp neighbors command in EXEC Privilege mode as shown in the first
example. For BGP neighbor configuration information, use the show running-config bgp command in EXEC Privilege mode as
shown in the second example.
The following example displays two neighbors: one is an external internal BGP neighbor and the second one is an internal BGP neighbor.
The first line of the output for each neighbor displays the AS number and states whether the link is an external or internal (shown in bold).
The third line of the show ip bgp neighbors output contains the BGP State. If anything other than ESTABLISHED is listed, the
neighbor is not exchanging information and routes. For more information about using the show ip bgp neighbors command, refer
to the
Dell Nettworking OS Command Line Interface Reference Guide.
NOTE:
The showconfig command in CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode gives the same information as the show
running-config bgp command.
