Does OpenBGPd have something similar to Cisco's weight attribute? I looked at the man page and it doesn't seem to mention weight.
A brief summary of what I'm trying to do. I have two sites, A and B. Both sites are in the same AS. Routers A and B both have a link to different ISPs and a private link to each other. Router A talks EBGP to its ISP and router B talks EBGP to its ISP. Routers A and B both talk IBGP to each other. I want each site to prefer the route provided by its ISP, even if the alternate route has a shorter AS path. Site A should never use a route from router B for Internet-based traffic unless it doesn't have a route to the destination from its ISP. Likewise, Site B should never use a route from router A for Internet-based traffic unless it doesn't have a route to the destination from its ISP. I'm currently using weight to achieve this behavior. I can't use local preference since that would make all Internet-bound traffic go through one of the two routers.
