BGP session name (ROS 7.13.4)

mikro2009 · Thu Feb 15, 2024 11:13 am

Hi all,

does someone know why the name of a bgp session is suffixed by "-1"?

/routing/bgp/connection/print
Flags: D - dynamic, X - disabled, I - inactive 
 0   name="test"
     remote.address=...

/routing/bgp/session/print
Flags: E - established 
 0 E name="test-1"
     remote.address=...

This makes it harder to monitor connections/sessions via API (especially if there is not
any documentation of the suffix format).

Best Regards,
Heino

because connection is a matcher and it can match multiple sessions. That is why session name = connection_name-x
