An engineer configured BGP and wants to select the path from 10.77.255.57 as the best path instead of current best path. Which action resolves the issue?
A. Configure AS_PATH prepend for the current best path
B. Configure higher MED to select as the best path
C. Configure AS_PATH prepend for the desired best path
D. Configure lower LOCAL_PREF to select as the best path
Correct Answer: D
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
From the output, we learn that the current best path is from 10.57.255.11 (which includes “…valid, confed-external, best”) and this path is 2 ASes away (64955 65003). Although there are some paths with only 1 AS away (path from 172.16.254.234 for example) but they were not chosen the best path so AS_PATH was not used to determine the best path -> Answers A and answer C are not correct.
All the paths in the output have metric of 0 and this is the lowest (best) value for this attribute. If we configure higher MED then it is less preferred over other paths -> Answer B is not correct.
Only answer D is left but LOCAL_PREF attribute should be configured with higher value to be preferred so we hope “lower LOCAL_PREF” here means higher value. But this is the best answer.
Q5 and Q69 are same, but answers different.
