Hi

I could not found default protocol preferences on the user doc. I had to 
search the code.

I think the defaults (or at least the order of preference) should be 
somewhere in the documentation.

This is the info I was looking for :

/*
  *      Default protocol preferences
  */

#define DEF_PREF_DIRECT         240     /* Directly connected */
#define DEF_PREF_STATIC         200     /* Static route */
#define DEF_PREF_OSPF           150     /* OSPF intra-area, inter-area 
and type 1 external routes */
#define DEF_PREF_BABEL          130     /* Babel */
#define DEF_PREF_RIP            120     /* RIP */
#define DEF_PREF_BGP            100     /* BGP */
#define DEF_PREF_RPKI           100     /* RPKI */
#define DEF_PREF_L3VPN_IMPORT    80     /* L3VPN import -> lower than BGP */
#define DEF_PREF_L3VPN_EXPORT   120     /* L3VPN export -> higher than 
BGP */
#define DEF_PREF_INHERITED      10      /* Routes inherited from other 
routing daemons */

Thanks to the devs for the good work.
