Layer 3 Routing Commands 1242
no bgp aggregate-different-meds
Default Configuration
By default, all the routes aggregated by a given aggregate address must have
the same MED value.
Command Mode
IPv6 Address Family Configuration mode
User Guidelines
When this command is used, the path for an active aggregate address is
advertised without an MED attribute and the MED attribute is not
considered in aggregating routes. When this command is not used, if
multiple routes match an aggregate address, but have different MEDs, the
aggregate takes the MED of the first matching route and any other matching
prefix with the same MED is included in the aggregate. Matching prefixes
with different MEDs are not considered part of the aggregate and continue to
be advertised as individual routes.
Command History
Introduced in version 6.2.0.1 firmware.
Example
console(config-router-af)#bgp aggregate-different-meds
bgp always-compare-med
Use this command to compare MED values during the decision process in
paths received from different autonomous systems. To revert to the default
behavior, only comparing MED values from paths received from neighbors in
the same AS, use the no form of this command.
Syntax
bgp always-compare-med
no bgp aways-compare-med
