Study the Complete Policy Chain of a BGP Peer

 

You can use the show-bgp-policy script to display all routing-policies in sequential order for a selected BGP peer. The script provides an easy way to study the complete policy chain of a BGP peer. With multiple BGP policies in an import or export policy chain, it can become troublesome to determine what action will be taken for a particular prefix because the policies will usually not appear in the desired order within the policy-options hierarchy in the configuration. 

 

The configuration text for each policy in the policy chain for the selected peer is extracted by the script and then displayed to the console in the correct sequential order. Through use of this op script, you can easily read the complete policy chain from start to finish.

 

There are three command-line arguments:

 

• neighbor - Specify which BGP peer to view
• direction - Select the import or export direction
• database - View the policies from either the committed database (the default) or the candidate database
