Definition For New BMP Statistics Type

defines a number of different BMP statistics types to observe interesting events that occur on the router. Stats are either counters or gauges. A 32-bit Counter is a non-negative integer that monotonically increases until it reaches a maximum value, when it wraps around and starts increasing again from 0. A 64-bit Gauge is a non-negative integer that may increase or decrease, but shall never exceed a maximum value, nor fall below a minimum one. This document defines new gauges for BMP statistics message. The format of the BMP statistics message remains same as defined in

The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here.

This section defines different statistics type for RIB-IN and RIB-OUT monitoring type.

Type = TBD1: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in Adj-RIBs-In-Pre-Policy. The value can increase or decrease base on ongoing configuration change. Note that this counter updates stats type 7 defined in and makes it a explicit for Adj-RIBs-In-Pre-Policy. Type = TBD2: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI Adj-RIBs-In-Pre-Policy. The value can increase or decrease base on ongoing configuration change. Note that this counter is similar from stats type 9 defined in and makes it a explicit for Adj-RIBs-In-Pre-Policy. The value is structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge. Type = TBD3: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in Adj-RIBs-In-Post-Policy. The value can increase or decrease base on ongoing configuration change. Type = TBD4: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI Adj-RIBs-In-Post-Policy. The value can increase or decrease base on ongoing configuration change. The value is structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge. Type = TBD5: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI rejected by inbound policy. The value can increase or decrease base on ongoing configuration change. Note that this counter is different from stats type 0 defined in . The stats type 0 in is the a 32 counter which is monotonically increasing number and doesn't represents the current number of routes rejected by inbound policy due to ongoing configuration changes. The value is structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge. Type = TBD6: (64-bit Gauge) Number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI accepted by inbound policy. The value can increase or decrease base on ongoing configuration change or network events. The value is structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge. Some implementations, or configurations in implementations, may discard routes that do not match policy and thus the accepted count and the rib-in counts will be identical in such cases. Type = TBD7: (64-bit Gauge) Number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI selected as active route. The value can increase or decrease base on ongoing configuration change or network events. The value is structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge. Type = TBD8: (64-bit Gauge) Number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI damped by configured route damping policy. The value can increase or decrease base on configuration change or network events. The value is structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge. Type = TBD9: (64-bit Gauge) Number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI marked as stale by any configuration. The value is structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge. This is the route that are marked stale as part of GR process. Type = TBD10: (64-bit Gauge) Number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI marked as stale by LLGR. The value is structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge. This is the route that are marked stale as part of LLGR process.

Type = TBD11: (64-bit Gauge) Current number of routes in per-AFI/SAFI rejected by outbound policy. These routes are active routes which should otherwise would have been advertised in absense of outbound policy which rejected them. The value can increase or decrease base on ongoing configuration change. The value is structured as: 2-byte Address Family Identifier (AFI), 1-byte Subsequent Address Family Identifier (SAFI), followed by a 64-bit Gauge. This counter only considers routes distributed from loc-rib into the adj-ribs-out and does not include cases like BGP add-paths .
