Weight? I thought we were talking about BGP, not dieting. Clearly the answer is C, local preference. It's the one that really hits the spot.

Weight is important too, but local preference is what really matters in this case.

But what about weight? Doesn't that play a role in BGP routing?

Hmm, I'm torn between B and C. Maybe I should just flip a coin and hope for the best. Or bribe the exam proctor, that could work too.

Local preference for sure! It's the secret sauce of BGP. You can't go wrong with that option.

B. Multiple exit discriminator sounds like the right choice to me. It's used to prefer one exit point over another when you have multiple connections to the same provider.

I think the answer is C. Local preference. That's the BGP metric that allows you to influence route selection within your own autonomous system.

Yes, setting the local preference will help determine which local router the service provider will use for certain routes.

I'm not sure, but I think Weight could also be used to influence the routing decision.
