A firewall administrator is trying to identify active routes learned via BGP in the virtual router runtime stats within the GUI. Where can they find this information?

Question

Options

• Aroutes listed in the routing table with flags Oi
• Broutes listed in the routing table with flags A/B
• Cunder the BGP Summary tab
• Droutes listed in the forwarding table with BGP in the Protocol column

• A
  3% (1)
• B
  92% (35)
• D
  5% (2)

Explanation

In PAN-OS virtual router runtime stats, active BGP routes appear in the routing table flagged with A (Active - best path selected and installed) and B (learned via BGP), making option B correct. Option A is wrong because the flag O denotes OSPF routes, not BGP - "Oi" would indicate an OSPF intra-area route. Option C is wrong because the BGP Summary tab shows peer/neighbor session state and prefix counts, not the actual routes themselves. Option D is wrong because the forwarding table reflects what's programmed into the data plane, and routes there aren't filtered or labeled by protocol in a "BGP column" - you'd look at the routing table to see protocol-specific flags.

Memory tip: Think A/B = Active BGP - the two flags literally spell out what you're looking for, and both must be present for the route to be actively used.
