No, you can't change BGP's path selection. You can only influence the
hops that you have jurisdiction over. Once it leaves your AS it's out
of your hands. In a lab scenario, you can only influence it one hop at
a time. That's the nature of BGP.

Hi Guys,
i have a weird question, and i don't know if this is possible or not,
its about as-path maipulation,

of course we all kno that we could prepend as-path either at the end of
the as-path
but could we prepend as-path in the middle
for example
suppose that R1 is receiving a route with the following as-path:

11 9 8 7 i

could we change it to:

11 10 9 8 7 i

could i??

i know this CCIE are getting me crazy
