Which of the following statements regarding the MED value in BGP are true?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, D

The MED (Multi-Exit Discriminator) is an optional, non-transitive attribute used to influence the exit path. MED is considered after attributes such as Local-Preference, AS-Path, and Origin during route selection. By default, if a MED value is missing, it is treated as 0 unless the bestroute med-none-as-maximum command is configured to treat it as 4294967295 .

For option D, I remember something about default values, but I’m not clear on the specifics of the med-none-as-maximum command. It sounds familiar though.

I recall that option C might be tricky; I think BGP only compares MED values for routes within the same AS, but I could be wrong.

I'm not entirely sure about option B, but I feel like the default MED value is indeed 0, similar to what we discussed in class.

I think option A is correct because I remember that MED is considered after Local Preference and AS Path in the BGP decision process.
