Hello Everyone,

I have just started using VyOS. I am looking for a document or link which contains in detail usage of VyOS CLI and its output with an explanation.

Thanks for your help

@harshit I dont think there is a list of all commands and expected output.

But the official documentation is the best so far; VyOS User Guide — VyOS 1.4.x (sagitta) documentation

Are there some commands you are looking at specifically?

Hi @olofl,

I am looking for the explanation of below command:

set protocols bgp maximum-paths ibgp 32

In this I am looking for the meaning of “32” mentioned here.

@harshit I am pretty sure it refers to load-sharing in routing. VyOS uses frr as routing daemon. But I cannot find documentation on maximum-paths on frr website. However, another search on the term lead me to this, which has a good explanation. BGP Multipath load sharing iBGP and eBGP
And the meaning 32 in your example would then mean the maximum number of ibgp “equal” routes to be installed in the RIB.

Thanks @olofl for sharing the information. I have also searched the same and got a good link below which explains the configuration.

Thanks for your help.
