All,

I have a question on BGP route selection sequence.

According to Cisco, the rule is:

Weight>Local Preference>locally generated route

However, all the locally generated routes will have higher weight of 32768,
then they will take precedence over Local Preference. Is this a
contradiction?

Shall the order be Weight>locally generated route>Local Preference?

Need an explanation on this.

Thanks in advance.

-ACS
