Thanks for the answer. What happens when the preference is the same for two different protocol types - which protocol is preferred? For example, if you have the preference of BGP and Babel routes both set to 100, which route will be chosen? BGP and Babel routes can't really be compared since BGP takes the AS path and Babel takes the metric as the main decision criterion.
