Ahh,

 

Thanks for that ,

 

I am "trying" to do load balancing over IBGP and its not working to well.

 

Yes , I am running OPSF over fast Ethernet ,

How could you tell that from the BGP output , I would really like to know ?

 

Also

I have looked for a link to explain where and how to manipulate this metric

 

Do you know of a link that might help me understand this better ?

 

Many thanks

That's your IGP metric to the BGP next-hop. It looks like maybe your doing
RIP or OSPF over fast ethernet?
