Hi, Ondrej
Thank you for explanation.
One more question: is it possible to add "bgp always-compare-med" option in BIRD? That would not be a problem. A question is under which circumstances such comparison has some sense. Probably only if user overwrites all MEDs on input to the AS.
Hi Ondrej,
We are using it at Cisco Route Servers and some of customers using it. I think it could be a good idea to have this option available, as some of our members want to have this feature enabled at our IXP.
And one more thing: in some of the previous answers you told about "time of route". In route selection process inside the BIRD, at what step this criteria counted? Before 'router_id' or after?
Best regards,

OK, i will implement that.

BIRD handles this according to RFC 5004 - before router id and only if it is enabled (option 'prefer older'). -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'SanTiago' Zajicek (email: santiago@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
