question:
bgp deterministic med
answer:
Enforce the comparison of the MED between all paths received from the same autonomuos system explanation:
The bgp deterministic-med command can be configured to enforce deterministic comparison of the
MED value between all paths received from within the same autonomous system.
question:
bgp always-compare-med
answer:
Allow the comparison of MED for path from neighbors in different autonomous system.
explanation:
The MED is one of the parameters that is considered when selecting the best path among many alternative paths. The path with a lower MED is preferred over a path with a higher MED. During the
best-path selection process, MED comparison is done only among paths from the same autonomous
system. The bgp always-compare-med command is used to change this behavior by enforcing MED
comparison between all paths, regardless of the autonomous system from which the paths are received.
question:
bgp bestpath med-confed
answer:
Enable MED comparison among paths learned from confederation peers explanation:
The MED comparison between confederation peers occurs only if no external autonomous systems are
in the path (an external autonomous system is an autonomous system that is not within the confederation). If an external autonomous system in the path, then the external MED is passed transparently through the confederation, and the comparison is does not occur.
