Which statement describes the BGP evaluation criteria of path attributes during the calculation of the best path for a route?

  • Prefer the lowest weight attribute.
  • Prefer an internal path over an external path.
  • Prefer the lowest multi-exit discriminator attribute.
  • Prefer the path with the highest neighbor IP address.

  1. Prefer the highest weight.
  2. Prefer the highest local preference.
  3. Prefer the route originated by the local router.
  4. Prefer the path with the shorter Accumulated Interior Gateway Protocol (AIGP) metric attribute.
  5. Prefer the shortest AS_Path.
  6. Prefer the lowest origin code.
  7. Prefer the lowest multi-exit discriminator (MED).
  8. Prefer an external path over an internal path.
  9. Prefer the path through the closest IGP neighbor.
  10. Prefer the oldest route for EBGP paths.
  11. Prefer the path with the lowest neighbor BGP RID.
  12. Prefer the path with the lowest neighbor IP address.
