Origin
Origin attribute of route, which indicates that the route updates its origin
relative to the route originating it from AS. It has three optional values:
IGP
The route belongs to inside of AS. BGP treats
aggregate route and the route defined by the
command network as inside of AS, and origin type
as IGP.
EGP
The route is learned from exterior gateway protocol
(EGP).
INC
Short for INCOMPLETE: indicates that the original
source of the route information is unknown
(learned by other methods). BGP sets the origin of
the route imported through other IGP protocols as
INCOMPLETE
As-path
AS-path attribute of route, which records all AS areas that the route passes.
With it, route loop can be avoided
