cluster_id, then the cluster_id count is 1000, since the same value is stored for thousand dierent attribute
records.
The attribute next-hop is a part of the BGP attribute data structure.
If two peers send the same route that contains similar path attributes, then two entries are maintained in the
back-end, as both these entries have dierent next-hops. If this same route is sent to a dierent peer, an
entry for each peer is created, as the next-hop is dierent. As a result, the BGP attributes count in the
summary output will dier accordingly.
The following describes the show ip bgp summary command shown in the following example.
