What is bgpPeerLocalAddr?

This OID stores the local IP address on this router that is used for BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) communication with a neighboring router. It identifies which of the local router's interfaces is active for routing protocol exchanges. A BGP administrator references this when verifying that the correct interface IP is being used for external routing protocol connections.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.15.2.1.5
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> BGP-MIB::bgpPeerLocalAddr

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.15.2.1.5.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> BGP-MIB::bgpPeerLocalAddr.1
