Change MED attribute
By default, FTOS uses the MULTI_EXIT_DISC or MED attribute when comparing EBGP paths from the
same AS.
Use any or all of the following commands in the CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode to change how
the MED attribute is used.
Use the
show config command in the CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode to view the nondefault
values.
Change LOCAL_PREFERENCE attribute
In FTOS, you can change the value of the LOCAL_PREFERENCE attribute.
Command Syntax Command Mode Purpose
bgp always-compare-med
CONFIG-ROUTER-
BGP
Enable MED comparison in the paths from neighbors
with different ASs.
By default, this comparison is not performed.
bgp bestpath med {confed |
missing-as-best}
CONFIG-ROUTER-
BGP
Change the bestpath MED selection to one of the
following:
confed: Chooses the bestpath MED comparison of
paths learned from BGP confederations.
missing-as-best: Treat a path missing an MED as
the most preferred one
