Suresh,
I had thought that AD decides which routing protocol to be used in the first 
place. 

As per your statement, an IGP distributed local route could override an EBGP 
advertised route - is it not! 

I wonder what the point of having an AD of 20  for eBGP, if the WLLA OMNI rules 
are anyway the decider.
Comments ?

Local Pref, AS path, origin and Med in that order  and AD is the
second last tie breaker in considering the best route.

Thanks
Suresh
