You could use the xorpsh "show route table ..." and
"show route admin ..." commands to show the routes and admin
distances inside the RIB.

If you want to continuously receive the routes modifications from
the RIB, then you can write a program that uses the redist_enable4
and redist_enable6 XRLs for example to register interest with the
RIB. That program needs to implement the redist4.xif and redist6.xif
XRL target interface to receive the route modifications.
This is actually the mechanism used by the rib/tools/show_routes.cc
program, so you can use it as a starting point.

Hope that helps,
Pavlin
