guys ;
im configuring 3 routers ,RA,RC,RD.
ra is AS 3
while both RC and RD in AS 1, the 3 routers are connected fully meshed .

the requirement is to let all the traffic comes to AS 3 through the
connection between RA and RD unless the link fails .
i configured RA to send metric value to RC greater than the one sent to RD .

BUT , still RC recoginze the route to the AS 1 networks thourgh RA and not
RD .
i noticed that the localpref value coming from RD to RC is 100 while no
value for it from RA (which is logical since RD and RC are on the same AS ).

now ,and if i dont have control to config RC or RD (they are the service
provider routers ) how can i solve this problem ?.
as per halabi 's book ,RC should reach AS1 networks though RD ...wat do i
miss here ?/

THX
