Ze command
Description
Feed a hex-encoded BGP UPDATE through a peer's filter chain and see
the accept/reject result plus attribute modifications at each stage.
Read-only: no routes are actually forwarded. Great for validating
policy changes before you commit.
The selector and the direction, filter, update and source-asn4 tokens are
parsed by the handler, so the peer selector can be a free-form name or
address and the tokens can arrive in any order.
