Gregory,
Step 1: Router B is faced with two BGP sources, ebgp and locally originated
(redistributed from RIP).
BGP decision process will pick the locally originated over the ebgp route
(Wendel Odom)
W - weight
L - local preference
L - locally originated
A - AS path
O - Origin
M - MED
N - Neighbor Type
I - cannot remember :)
Step 2: BGP administrative distance for locally originated is 200, for RIP
120. RIP therefore wins.
In case I've got the sequence figured out wrongly, comments are welcome.
