med-missing-as-worst (BGP)

Configures the device to favor a route that has a Multi-Exit Discriminator (MED) over a route that

does not have one.

Synopsis med-missing-as-worst

no med-missing-as-worst

Operands None

Defaults This option is disabled.

Command Modes BGP address-family IPv4 unicast configuration mode

Description When MEDs are compared, by default the device favors a low MED over a higher one. Because the

device assigns a value of 0 to a route path MED if the MED value is missing, the default MED

comparison results in the device favoring the route paths that do not have MEDs. Use this

command to configure the device to favor a route that has a Multi-Exit Discriminator (MED) over a

route that does not have one.

Usage Guidelines Use the no form of this command to restore the default.

Examples Typical example of this command:

switch(config)# rbridge-id 10

switch(config-rbridge-id-10)# router bgp

switch(config-bgp-ipv4u)# med-missing-as-worst
