What does the output of the show route forwarding-table command display?

The command "show route forwarding-table" is specifically used within Junos OS to display the current forwarding table maintained by the Routing Engine. The forwarding table is crucial because it determines how packets are directed through the network based on their destination IP addresses. This output includes information about active routes that are in the table, which are used by the device to forward traffic effectively.

The routing policies pertain to how routes are selected and managed but are not displayed with this command. Similarly, static route information is part of the routing configuration but does not comprehensively represent the active forwarding information. The BGP neighbor statuses are more related to the state of BGP sessions rather than the forwarding decisions made by the device. Thus, the command clearly focuses on providing insights into the forwarding table created by the Routing Engine, which directly impacts the movement of traffic across the network.
