Hello,

I have 3 routers:-

                                        150.150.150.0/24
   ----------------------------------------------------------------
    |
|
    |
|
  R1 ---------------------------- R2----------------------------R3
(AS1)                                    (AS2)
(AS3)

R1 - R2, R2 - R3 are using EBGP

I injected the network 150.150.150.0/24 into BGP from both R1 & R3.  I have
enabled bgp always-compare-med to allow R2 to compare the MED from AS 1 & AS
3.  I have also set a route-map on R3 so that when it advertise
150.150.150.0/24 to R2, it would have a metric of 20, as compared to 0 from
R1.

The thing I'm confused is that after I have enabled the command "bgp
bestpath med missing-as-worst", according to CCO, the MED of 0 from R1 would
now be considered as infinity (as confirmed by the debug messages), but why
is R2 still prefers the route from R1 instead of from R3?

Best Regards,
Hunt
