The OSPF and BGP route monitoring tables provide visibility into route details.

View details on OSPFv2 routes on the OSPFv2 Routing Monitor List page.

Parameter	Description

Cost	Indicates the cost of a route reaching the destination.
Type	The value can be Stub, Rtr, Net, SNet, ASB, ASE, GM, or NSSA.
NextHop	Indicates the next-hop IP address.
AdvRouter	Indicates the routing device of the route.
Area	Indicates the area to which the route belongs.
Details	Indicates the details about OSPFv2 routes.

Parameter	Description
Process ID	Indicates the OSPFv2 process ID of the route.
Router ID	Indicates the router ID of the routing table.
Total Nets	Indicates the number of routes in the OSPFv2 process.
Intra Area	Indicates the number of intra-area routes in the OSPFv2 process.

Parameter	Description
Destination	Indicates the destination network of an OSPFv3 route.
Cost	Indicates the cost of the route to the destination address.
NextHop	Indicates the next hop pointing to the destination address.

View details on BGP routes on the BGP Routing Monitor List page.

Parameter	Description
Status	Indicates the BGP route status, such as valid and optimal.
Network	Indicates the network of a BGP route.
NextHop	Indicates the next-hop IP address.
MED	Indicates the MED value carried by the BGP route.
LocPrf	Indicates the local priority of a BGP route.
PrefVal	Indicates the preferred value of the route learned from the peer.
Path/Ogn	Path indicates the AS number passed by the route. Origin indicates the source attribute of the route, including the following types: IGP: has the highest priority. Routing information is obtained through IGP in the initiating AS. For example, a route is injected to the BGP routing table by the network command. EGP: has the higher priority. Routing information is obtained through EGP. incomplete: has the lowest priority. Routing information is obtained in other methods. For example, BGP imports routes through the import-route command.
