Hi Zeng,

The local preference for the routes coming from your EBGP neighbor is set to
100, but it doesn't show in the show ip bgp neighbor output. You can test
this by manually setting the local preference for routes coming from your
EBGP neighbor to 99. When you set this, the IBGP route should be preferred.
