BGP commands enquiry - advertised-route, received-route, and many more

[Jimmy Halim]

Hi Alexander, guys,

Thanks a lot for your input. Actually it is great if someone has tried a work around to display the equivalent command of "show ip bgp neighbors 1.1.1.1 received-routes" in BIRD. We are able to do this in OpenBGPD. I have heard before that maybe we need to use community to play around. But I am not sure how to do it. It is appreciated if anyone here can give some light.

Thanks,
Jimmy

No <easy> way to see routes before applying way. If you desperately 
needs this you can make a separate table for this peer, and use pipe 
filtering to put needed routes in master table (and vise versa)

I've translated part of our internal wiki page, regarding bird:
http://bird.mpls.in/projects/mpls-bird/wiki/Bird_cheatsheet

Maybe it can help a bit more.
