MED is being sent from R5 in AS3 to two routers (R7 and R10) in AS1.
Therefore the two routes being compared on R7 and R10 have MED values from a
single AS.

You shouldn't need 'always-compare-med' as the route is being advertised by
only one AS (AS3)

Refer to the rules for comparing Med for external

"always-compare-med"
