Hi,
once 172.16.1.0 is redistributed into one end of As 100, now it will
become the internal
route of as 100 which will adverise to R4. R4 learn 172.16.1.0 from AS
[500 600] and now also from as [100]. So as 100 is the shortest path.

Regards
Parry

If the problem is like what you said ,why don't you
change the routes from r4 to higher weight ?
