hi ,


Anyone here knows which BGP path criteria takes precedence ? AS_PATH or
local preference


>From what I read it is local preference , but in actual fact it is not so ,
why I said this is because I have a customer who prepends their prefixes
many times then advertise them to us but on our side we set local preference
to customers' routes to 90 which in fact will always come back to us if we
do this but this is not happening

Instead the prefixes go to another providers' link because their AS-PATH is
shorter

why is that so?
