Group,
I thought MED is meant to take preference over internal or external routes
but i can't see it happen in the case below. R6 prefers 172.16.20.2 to
192.68.6.1 to reach network 172.16.10.0 despite the fact that the latter as
a lower metric of 0.
Can anyone explain this?
r6#sh ip bgp
BGP table version is 7, local router ID is 192.168.11.1
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i - internal
Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete
