bgp always-compare-med
Enables/disables Multi Exit Discriminator (MED) comparison when applying route selection rules between external neighbors.
Syntax: [no] bgp always-compare-med
Description: Multi-Exit Discriminator (MED) is considered when selecting the best path among many paths. Paths with lower MED are preferred.
Use the bgp always-compare-med command to enable the comparison of MED among paths learned from external neighbors.
Use the no bgp always-compare-med command to disable the comparison of MEDs in routing updates from external neighbors.
Factory Default: MED is compared when evaluating routes learned from external neighbors.
Command Mode: Router configuration.
Example: The following example configures a BGP speaker to compare Multi Exit Discriminators between paths with no regard for the neighbor from which the paths were received:
router(config)#router bgp 101
router(config-router)#bgp always-compare-med
