What are two valid BGP Attributes that can be used to influence the route path traffic will take? (Choose two.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, D

AS-Path Prepend: This attribute allows you to prepend one or more AS numbers to the AS path of a route, making it appear longer and less preferable to other BGP routers. You can use this attribute to manipulate the inbound traffic from your BGP peers by advertising a longer AS path for some routes and a shorter AS path for others.

MED: This attribute stands for Multi-Exit Discriminator and allows you to specify a preference value for a route among multiple exit points from an AS. You can use this attribute to manipulate the outbound traffic to your BGP peers by advertising a lower MED value for some routes and a higher MED value for others.

I think AS-Path Prepend is definitely one of the attributes we studied, but I'm not sure about the second one.

Ah, this is a classic BGP question. The two valid attributes are definitely AS-Path Prepend and MED. The AS-Path Prepend is used to make a route less preferred, and the MED is used to influence the inbound traffic.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know AS-Path Prepend is a valid option, but I can't remember the other one off the top of my head. I'll have to carefully consider the choices and try to eliminate the incorrect ones.

Easy peasy! The two valid BGP attributes are AS-Path Prepend and MED. The AS-Path Prepend adds extra autonomous system numbers to make the route less attractive, and the MED (Multi-Exit Discriminator) is used to influence the inbound traffic.

Okay, let me think this through. I know AS-Path Prepend is used to make a route less preferred, but I'm not sure about the other one. I'll have to review my BGP notes before answering this.

Definitely A and D. If you can't manipulate the AS-Path and MED, what's the point of even using BGP, am I right?
