Is there a known issue with OpenBGPD ignoring MED during its path
selection? Note that the first item listed is best below and it has a
MED of 12. The others are 10 which should be preferred over 12. I'm
guessing that it's then going to a later stage of path selection where
it's choosing hte lowest router ID of 77.171.0.2.

This is running bgpd that came with 4.9, I haven't tested a -current
compiled bgpd yet.
OpenBSD rr2 4.9 GENERIC.MP#819 amd64
On a related note I put a few of these routers in over the weekend and
everything else is working incredibly well!
