PathAttrAggregatorAddrstring
DescriptionstringThis is the IP address of the last BGP speaker that performed route aggregation. A value of 0.0.0.0 indicates the absence of this attribute.
MappingStringsstringMIB.IETF|BGP4-MIB.bgp4PathAttrAggregatorAddr
PathAttrAggregatorASuint16
DescriptionstringThis is the AS number of the last BGP speaker that performed route aggregation. A value of 0 indicates the absence of this attribute. The range of this attribute is defined to be 0 to 65535.
MappingStringsstringMIB.IETF|BGP4-MIB.bgp4PathAttrAggregatorAS
PathAttrAtomicAggregateuint32
DescriptionstringThis is an enumeration that defines whether or not the local system has selected a less specific route without selecting a more specific route. There are two values, 1 and 2, indicating that a less specific route has not and has been selected, respectively. This is a 32-bit integer to correspond to the IETF MIB.

ValuesstringUnknown, Less Specific Not Selected, Less Specific Selected
PathAttrBestuint16
DescriptionstringThis is an indication of whether or not this route was chosen as the best BGP route. There are three possible values, 0 (Unknown), 1 (FALSE) and 2 (TRUE).

ValueMapstring0, 1, 2
ValuesstringUnknown, False, True
PathAttrCalcLocalPrefsint16
DescriptionstringThis is the degree of preference calculated by the receiving BGP speaker for an advertised route. A value of -1 indicates the absence of this attribute. The range of this attribute is defined to be -1 to 2147483647.
MappingStringsstringMIB.IETF|BGP4-MIB.bgp4PathAttrCalcLocalPref
PathAttrLocalPrefsint32
DescriptionstringThis is the originating BGP4 speaker's degree of preference for an advertised route. A value of -1 indicates the absence of this attribute. The range of this attribute is defined to be -1 to 2147483647.
MappingStringsstringMIB.IETF|BGP4-MIB.bgp4PathAttrLocalPref
PathAttrMultiExitDiscsint32
DescriptionstringThis metric is used to discriminate between multiple adjacent autonomous systems. A value of -1 indicates the absence of this attribute. The range of this attribute is defined to be -1 to 2147483647.

DescriptionstringThis is the address of the border router that should be used for the destination network.

PathAttrOriginuint16
DescriptionstringThis is an enumeration that defines the ultimate origin of the path information. The value 'IGP' means that the origin is interior; the value 'EGP' means that it was learned via an EGP; the value 'INCOMPLETE' means that the origin is undetermined.
MappingStringsstringMIB.IETF|BGP4-MIB.bgp4PathAttrOrigin

ValuesstringIGP, EGP, Incomplete
PathAttrUnknownNumberuint16
DescriptionstringThe number of unknown attributes in the array, PathAttrUnknown.

PathAttrASPathSegmentuint8[]
DescriptionstringThis property and its description are taken directly from RFC 1657. The property represents a sequence of AS path segments. Each AS path segment is represented by the tuple: <type, length, value> The type is a 1-octet field which has two possible values: 1 = AS_SET 2 = AS_SEQUENCE An AS_SET is an unordered set of ASs representing the path that an UPDATE message has traversed, and an AS_SEQUENCE is an ordered set of ASs representing the path that an UPDATE message has traversed. The length is a 1-octet field containing the number of ASs in the value field. The value field contains one or more AS numbers, each AS is represented in the octet string as a pair of octets according to the following algorithm: first-byte-of-pair = ASNumber / 256; second-byte-of-pair = ASNumber & 255; This property is mapped from the bgp4PathAttrASPathSegment MIB variable, which is an OctetString. Its length is defined as a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 255 octets.

PathAttrUnknownstring[]
DescriptionstringThis contains one or more path atributes not understood by this BGP speaker. It is a array of path attributes that are not understood. The number of attributes is placed in a separate property of this class, PathAttrUnknownNumber.
