The command "birdc show status" is used to display the current status of the BIRD routing daemon. BIRD (Bird Internet Routing Daemon) is an open-source routing software that runs on Unix-like systems.
When you execute this command, it sends a request to the BIRD control socket, requesting the current status information. The response provides detailed information about the behavior and configuration of BIRD, including the routing tables, connected peers, protocol states, uptime, and various counters.
By using "birdc show status," you can get an overview of the BIRD routing daemon's current state and operational details, which can be helpful for troubleshooting or monitoring purposes.
