* If weights are equal, prefer the route with the highest local preference; * If the local preferences are the same, prefer the route originated by this router; * If none of the routes originated from this router, prefer the route that passes through the fewest ASes; -----Original Message----- From: Joep Hoet [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2002 1:09 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: route selection in BGP [7:36088] Can someone solve this confusion regarding the route selection process in Cisco BGP.
