Changing MED Attributes

By default, the system uses the MULTI_EXIT_DISC or MED attribute when comparing EBGP paths from the same AS.

To change how the MED attribute is used, enter any or all of the following commands.
  • Enable MED comparison in the paths from neighbors with different ASs. CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode bgp always-compare-med By default, this comparison is not performed.
  • Change the bestpath MED selection. CONFIG-ROUTER-BGP mode bgp bestpath med {confed | missing-as-best}

    • confed: Chooses the bestpath MED comparison of paths learned from BGP confederations.

    • missing-as-best: Treat a path missing an MED as the most preferred one.

To view the nondefault values, use the show config command in CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode.
