cmd = "show ip bgp {} all summary".format(address_family)

CLI command - show ip bgp {address_family} all summary is not accepted by IOSXE parser
it should read show ip bgp {address_family} summary

@wgibbons21

show ip bgp {address_family} all summary
It seems the above command is supported for iosxe.

You are welcome to contribute a new api with the show ip bgp {address_family} summary command. Kindly let me know if you need any help.

@lsheikal Thanks for reviewing! I meant the IOS-XE parser, not the Genie parser. See below:

Hi @wgibbons21,

I see your point. the API was developed initially to deal with address family vpnv4 or vpnv6. the command is acceptable. but it seemed missed to handle ipv4 unicast/ipv6 unicast in the API.

R1_xe#show ip bgp vpnv4 all summary   
BGP router identifier 10.1.1.1, local AS number 65000
BGP table version is 55, main routing table version 55

10.2.2.2        4        65000    1015    1120       55    0    0 16:52:31        1
10.3.3.3        4        65000    1024    1127       55    0    0 16:58:16        1

so we need to add like if condition to handle the case between ipv4 unicast/ipv6 unicast and vpnv4/vpnv6. in case of ipv4 unicast/ipv6 unicast, will not have all in the command.

This might be quick fix. Is this something you can consider to fix by yourself as contribution? we are encouraging users to contribute. if you cannot, no worries. we will take care of it but just let us know.

@tahigash Yes, I will fix and submit a pr. As I was testing just wanted to document the issue to make sure I didn't forget about it. Thanks again!

Facing same issue as the author, isn't there much demand for vpnv4 af?
