Command Mode

Command Default Level
Level: 12.
Usage Guideline
MED is an attribute specified by a local peer, and advertised to the remote peer to affect the best path
selection result in the remote peer. The remote peer will not pass the MED value with routes for further
path advertisement. The lower MED value is preferred than the larger MED value.
By default, the MED attribute only affects the selection of paths that are advertised by the same AS. Use
the command bgp always-compare-med to enable the mechanism that uses the Multi Exit Discriminator
(MED) in best path selection for paths that are advertised from neighbors in either the same or different
AS.
Specifies the MED value, set for the matched route.
