Which feature describes the weight parameter for BGP path selection?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

The weight parameter in BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is a Cisco-specific attribute that is local to the router on which it is configured. It is used to prefer one path over another when multiple paths to the same destination are available. The weight is not advertised to other routers, making it a local parameter.

I think it's A. Local to the router makes sense.

I’m confused about whether it’s local or global; I might need to review the definitions again before answering.

I feel like I’ve seen questions about BGP path selection before, and I think the weight is set locally, so A could be correct.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about the default value being 0, which might make C the right answer.
