i think alec's statement
"admin distance is only used to compare prefix learned from different routing protocols, e.g. EBGP vs OSPF.However, when the same prefix is learned from both EBGP and IBGP, the best path is determined by the qualification tests ?"
is correct.
example:
"bgp network backdoor" command
this one changes the ad of the external route to 200 so that igp routes are preferred but
"The BGP best path selection algorithm does not change when a network is configured as a back door. "(cco)
by the way
have a look at ipe 32 bgp section...
