Dear list, can you explain why the following route (0.0.0.0/0) is selected to go via as403, as as4057 clearly displays the shortest path here? As you can see I have used bgp_path.prepend() 3x on as403 for its own ASN.

it is because local-pref. Default route to AS403 has higher local-pref than one to AS4057. -- Alexander Shikov Technical Staff, Digital Telecom IX Tel.: +380 44 201 14 07 http://dtel-ix.net/
