If you prepend announces from every leaf to the spine, then r01.leaf108 in your example will see the announce from the spine with one extra prepend and from its tor witout extra prepends.

Take a look at the description of the next option, following "aigp". I don't think IGP dynamic routing is required to use aigp metric in BGP. The question is if you can setup costs and metrics as you need. I haven't used this feature myself, so I would not help with specific configs. But it seems to me that it could be used with BGP sessions only. > cost number > When BGP gateway mode is recursive (mainly multihop IBGP sessions), then the > distance to BGP next hop is based on underlying IGP metric.
