I sort of know the rule, but this one is little unusual, 'cause
normally, you would set med at outbound to a eBGP peer, in my case, it
apply to a peer inbound, so is it considered 2 as hops? in another
word, is it different from applying it to outbound peer seesion to R3?
Or better yet, if an OSPF area is attached to R1, and redist OSPF -->
BGP, by default, ospf cost will be translated to bgp med, will this
med be propagated to R3? in my lab, I saw it is, but like to know the
theory behind it

Thanks,
Pat
