Hi Ondrej, Thanks for the advice, I have fixed with. I always use Python, so I guess other C like Stript needs to do that. # 如果 MED 值已经存在，则将其以原值为基础增加 if defined (bgp_med) then { bgp_med = bgp_med + bgp_med_ping + bgp_med_ping; } # 否则，设置 MED 值为新值 else { bgp_med = bgp_med_ping + bgp_med_ping; } return true; AIGP is not intended to be transitive between completely distinct
autonomous systems (only across internal AS boundaries)
AIGP is always compared in paths that have the attribute, regardless of
whether they come from different neighbor AS or not AIGP is more important than MED in the BGP decision process (see the section titled BGP decision process) AIGP is automatically incremented every time there is a BGP next-hop change so that it can track the end-to-end IGP cost. All arithmetic operations on MED attributes must be done manually (for example, using route policies)
Looks like local_pref > bgp_path > aigp > bgp_med? And aigp is added when passing each ibgp session Automatically.?

Hi all,
I was doing research about selecting the best route on multiple nodes based on bgp_med attributes.
My idea is to add bgp_med value between each node based on ping, and then bird will select the route which has the lowest bgp_med value (which is the total ping delay)
But some routes will be filled, which i don't want it.
I found that the code " bgp_med = bgp_med + bgp_med_ping + bgp_med_ping;" will cause some routes to be filtered.
Can someone tell me why? I only want to modify bgp_med and don't want my routes to be filtered.
Hi
Perhaps there are some error in logs about filter failures? I guess that when bgp_med is not defined, then expression 'bgp_med + X' fails.
You could try something like:
if (defined(bgp_med)) bgp_med = bgp_med + X; else bgp_med = X;
And perhaps even better than use bgp_med for this is to use bgp_aigp attribute and associated BGP options (aigp, cost).
