If you have 2 discrete sites, both with BGP, one announces a 100.100.100.0/20, and another announcing 100.100.100.0/24, will traffic for the /24 block always go to the site announcing the /24, even if it's closer to the site announcing the /20?
The more specific route, if accepted, will always win, irrespective of any other consideration. This is true on both IPv4 and IPv6, and is fundamental to IP routing rather than specific to BGP. -- Alex Bligh
