Using cli like "sh ip bgp xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"[Cisco] or "sh route protocol bgp xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx detail" [Juniper] would be able to show me details for specific destinations. What i need is a software to get all the data from a routers routing table, analyze the best path and summarize the reason why its being chosen based on the BGP algorithm (local pref, no. of hops, MED, etc). That would show the big picture of why a certain upstream is more prefered than the other. Thanks.

NTOP can capture the traffic info, but to analyze each destination to find the reason for selection (local preference, no of AS hops, iBGP vs eBGP etc) would be hard. I need this info to understand why a certain upstream is being more prefered than the others. Thanks. Regards, Kana
