Hmm, not really.. for link-state we can display the LSA/LSP's and part
of the tree (i.e. "show isis topology"). BGP as a path-vector protocol
works so much differently than link-state that outputs like "I received
these routes with these metrics from these neighbors" don't really
apply.
For RIP as a distance-vector protocol, you can do "show ip rip database"
which shows "similar" information, EIGRP as well ("show ip eigrp
topology")
