Hi Birdies,
I've got a good reason to belive that the option 'default bgp_med' is not working (at all), at least in my setup. I do something like this in a filter: ... => those void's are disturbing, aren't they?
Even adding the option default bg_med 10 doesn't change the bgp metric. So I guess I found a bug? I could only work around it by setting the bgp_med in the import filter.
default bgp_med works, but in a slightly different way that you expect. It does not mean that it sets bgp_med attribute to that value, it just means that if two BGP routes are compared according to bgp_med than this value is used if one route does not have a bgp_med atrribute.
(void) value just means that the route does not have bgp_med attribute.
Usual way to set bgp_med attribute is to set it in the export filter.
ah, allright, got it, thanks a lot for the quick answer.
