show ip bgp neighbors
The show ip bgp neighbors command shows details about BGP neighbor
configuration and status.
Syntax
show ip bgp [vrf vrf-name ] neighbors [ neighbor-address ]
• neighbor-address —(Optional) The IPv4 address of a neighbor. Used to
limit the output to a single neighbor.
•
vrf vrf-name — Displays the aggregate address information associated
with the named VRF.
Default Configuration
By default, information about the global VRF is shown.
Command Mode
User Exec mode, Privileged EXEC mode, Global Configuration mode and all
sub-modes.
User Guidelines
Since IPv4 prefixes can only be exchanged over IPv4 peering, the neighbor-
address parameter must be an IPv4 peer address. This option limits the
output to show a single neighbor. If no neighbor address is specified, the
command shows all neighbors enabled for IPv4 prefix exchange.
If the
vrf-name argument is specified, information pertaining to that VRF is
displayed.
The following fields are displayed.
Field Description
Remote Address The neighbor’s IP address
Remote AS The neighbor’s autonomous system number
Peer ID The neighbor’s BGP router ID
Peer Admin Status START or STOP
