John,
The AS-Path counts within the confederation. As soon as the prefix is
advertised outside (to the real world) the confederation AS-path is
stripped, and the global AS is prepended. Within the confederation,
most of the same eBGP rules apply.
The MED value can be set regardless of where the prefix is advertised
(confed peer or other peer).
