Unless overridden, BGP takes -distance- into account where distance = AS path length. Centurylink has overridden that with a localpref so that it DOES NOT take distance into account. Which rather defeats the function of a distance vector protocol. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William Herrin b...@herrin.us https://bill.herrin.us/
