What is bgp4V2PeerState?

This displays the current state of the BGP finite state machine (idle, connect, active, opensent, openconfirm, established). Only in 'established' state are routes exchanged. Example: state 'active' means the router is waiting for the TCP connection to complete; state 'established' means routes are flowing.
