Item Description
BGP Peer is 3.3.3.3

Peer address (3.3.3.3 in this example).

BGP version

BGP version.

BGP current state

Current BGP EVPN status:

  • Idle: BGP EVPN denies any connection request. This is the initial state of BGP EVPN.

After BGP EVPN receives a start event, BGP EVPN initiates a TCP connection to a peer, starts the ConnectRetry timer, and listens to the TCP messages from the peer. BGP EVPN then enters the Connect state.

  • Connect: BGP EVPN is waiting for the TCP connection establishment to complete before performing further actions.
  • If the TCP connection is successfully established, BGP EVPN stops the ConnectRetry timer and sends an Open message to the peer. BGP EVPN then enters the Opensent state.
  • If the TCP connection fails to be established, BGP EVPN resets the ConnectRetry timer and listens to the TCP connection initiated by the peer. BGP EVPN then enters the Active state.
  • If the ConnectRetry timer expires, BGP EVPN restarts the ConnectRetry timer and attempts to establish a TCP connection with the peer again. At this time, BGP EVPN remains in the Connect state.
  • Active: BGP EVPN attempts to establish a TCP connection. This is the intermediate state of BGP EVPN.
  • If the TCP connection is successfully established, BGP EVPN resets the ConnectRetry timer and sends an Open message to the peer. BGP EVPN then enters the Opensent state.
  • If the ConnectRetry timer expires, BGP EVPN restarts the ConnectRetry timer and enters the Connect state.
  • If BGP EVPN attempts to establish a TCP connection with an unknown IP address but fails, BGP EVPN resets the ConnectRetry timer and remains in the Active state.
  • OpenSent: BGP EVPN has sent an Open message to the peer and is now waiting for an Open message from the peer.
  • If BGP EVPN receives a correct Open message, BGP EVPN enters the OpenConfirm state.
  • If BGP EVPN receives an incorrect Open message, BGP EVPN sends a Notification message to the peer and enters the Idle state.
  • If BGP EVPN receives a TCP connection teardown message, BGP EVPN resets the ConnectRetry timer and listens to the TCP connection initiated by the peer. BGP EVPN then enters the Active state.
  • OpenConfirm: BGP EVPN is waiting for a Notification or Keepalive message.
  • If BGP EVPN receives a Notification or TCP connection teardown message, BGP EVPN enters the Idle state.
  • If BGP EVPN receives a Keepalive message, BGP EVPN enters the Established state.
  • Established: Peers can exchange Update, Notification, and Keepalive messages.
  • If BGP EVPN receives an Update or Keepalive message, BGP EVPN remains in the Established state.
  • If BGP EVPN receives a Notification message, BGP EVPN enters the Idle state.
  • No neg: The address family is not enabled for the BGP peer. In this state, Update messages can be exchanged in other address families whose capabilities have been successfully negotiated. If the address family is enabled for the BGP peer, the local BGP peer receives a Notification message, and the peer relationship is disconnected. Then, the BGP peer changes to the Idle state and re-establishes the peer relationship.

Authentication type configured

Authentication type.

Last keepalive received

Last time when a Keepalive message is received.

Last keepalive sent

Last time when a Keepalive message is sent.

No refresh received since peer has been configured

No Route-Refresh packets are received from the peer since the peer relationship is established.

No refresh sent since peer has been configured

No Route-Refresh packets are sent from the peer since the peer relationship is established.

No routing policy is configured

No routing policy has been configured.

Minimum route advertisement interval is 15 seconds

Minimum route advertisement interval:

  • EBGP: 30s.
  • IBGP: 15s.
Optional capabilities

Optional capabilities of the peer.

Route refresh capability has been enabled

Route-refresh enabled.

Source interface for sending BGP packets specified.

Split group configured

Whether a split horizon group has been configured.

Pipe limit percent

Rate limit (in percentage) of a channel for receiving packets sent by peers.

Pipe limit count

Number of times rate limiting was performed for the channel to receive packets sent by peers.

Pipe last limit time

Last speed limit time of a channel for receiving packets sent by peers.

Routing policy configured

Whether a routing policy has been configured.

Type

BGP link type, which can only be IBGP link currently.

Port

Port number:

  • Local: local port number, which is fixed at 179 because BGP uses TCP as the transport layer protocol.
  • Remote: peer port number.
Configured

Timers that are locally configured:

  • Active Hold Time: indicates the hold time. If BGP EVPN does not receive any Keepalive message from the peer in the hold time, BGP EVPN considers that the peer is Down. BGP EVPN then instructs the other peers to withdraw the routes received from this peer.
  • Keep Alive Time: indicates the interval at which Keepalive messages are sent to the peer. Peers exchange Keepalive messages at intervals to show that they are working normally.
  • Min Hold Time: specifies the minimum hold time. If the hold time configured on a remote device is less than the min-hold-value configured on the local device, no BGP peer relationship can be established between the two devices. However, if the hold time configured on the remote device is 0s, a BGP peer relationship can be established between the two devices.
  • Connect-retry Time: specifies the ConnectRetry interval for a peer or peer group. When BGP initiates a TCP connection, the ConnectRetry timer is stopped if the TCP connection is established successfully. If the attempt to establish a TCP connection fails, BGP tries again to establish the TCP connection after the ConnectRetry timer expires.
