Q1Domain Verified
Within the context of BGP path selection, if two paths have the same Local Preference, what is the *next* most important attribute the BGP router will consider, assuming all other attributes are equal?
Weight
AS_PATH length
Origin code
MED (Multi-Exit Discriminator)
Q2Domain Verified
states Local Preference is equal, Weight becomes the deciding factor as it's evaluated before AS_PATH, Origin, or MED when other factors are tied. AS_PATH length is considered after Local Preference. Origin code is considered after AS_PATH length. MED is considered last among these common attributes. Question: A BGP speaker receives multiple routes for the same NLRI from its iBGP peers. If all these routes have the same Local Preference, what is the primary factor that will determine which route is installed in the BGP routing table and advertised to eBGP peers, assuming no other tie-breaking attributes are manipulated?
The AS_PATH length of the received routes.
The lowest IP address of the advertising iBGP peer's BGP neighbor relationship.
The router ID of the advertising iBGP peer.
The Origin attribute of the received routes.
Q3Domain Verified
Consider a scenario where an eBGP router has learned a route via an eBGP peer and the same route via an iBGP peer. Both routes have identical Local Preference and AS_PATH length. Which of the following statements is true regarding the path selection process?
The iBGP learned route will always be preferred due to its lower eBGP multi-hop count.
The eBGP learned route will always be preferred because it originates from an external AS.
D) The path selection process will default to the router ID of the advertising peer for both iBGP and eBGP learned routes in this specific tie-breaking scenario.
The route with the numerically lower Origin code will be preferre
