Processing sent and received MEDs

Syntax:


Parameters neighbor ipv4-addr use-med

Processes sending of MEDS and handles received MEDs. When two routes to the same destination are received from different peers within the same peer as, they may have different MEDs. When choosing between these routes, assuming that nothing else makes one preferable to the other (such as configured policy), the values of the differing MEDs are used to choose which route to use. In this comparison, the route with the lowest MED is preferred. Routes without MEDs are treated as having a MED value of zero. By default, MEDs are used to choose which route to use.
