Usage Information
In Non-Deterministic mode, paths are compared in the order in which they arrive. This method can lead to Dell
Networking OS choosing dierent best paths from a set of paths, depending on the order in which they are
received from the neighbors because MED may or may not get compared between adjacent paths. In Deterministic
mode (no bgp non-deterministic-med), Dell Networking OS compares MED between adjacent paths
within an AS group because all paths in the AS group are from the same AS.
When you change the path selection from Deterministic to Non-Deterministic, the path selection for the existing
paths remains Deterministic until you enter the clear ip bgp command to clear existing paths.
