Usage of BGP path attributes
1) ORIGIN
ORIGIN is a well-known mandatory attribute, which defines the origin of routing information, that is, how
a route became a BGP route. It involves three types:
z
IGP: Has the highest priority. Routes added to the BGP routing table using the network command
have the IGP attribute.
z
EGP: Has the second highest priority. Routes obtained via EGP have the EGP attribute.
z
incomplete: Has the lowest priority. The source of routes with this attribute is unknown, which does
not mean such routes are unreachable. The routes redistributed from other routing protocols have
the incomplete attribute.
2) AS_PATH
AS_PATH is a well-known mandatory attribute. This attribute identifies the autonomous systems
through which routing information carried in this Update message has passed. When a route is
advertised from the local AS to another AS, each passed AS number is added into the AS_PATH
attribute, thus the receiver can determine ASs to route the massage back. The number of the AS
closest to the receiver’s AS is leftmost, as shown below:
