Even though in confed they are in different autonomous systems
and have EBGP sessions, they exchange routing information as if
they were IBGP peers. Specifically, the next-hop, MED, and local
preference information is preserved

I think you're saying that if Router A in confed 1 sets the med to
router B
in confed 2, then will Router B pass this on to Router C in confed
3,
MED is "no-export" so I think you specifically need Router B to
restate the
distance to Router C.

Is this what you meant?

hi,all

The med advertised by a confederation member as A is reached to an
other
confederation member as B, then is it possible for the B to
advertise the
med to the other confereration member as C?

Thanks
