QuestionQ7

Install and configure the wired network solution

An eBGP configuration is established from an HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300 switch to two peers. Both peers advertise the 10.200.0.0/23 subnet using the default configuration. Which configuration implementation would cause the route through peer A to be preferred over peer B?

Explanation

On AOS-CX, BGP selects the path with the highest LOCAL_PREF before considering MED; a higher LOCAL_PREF is preferred, whereas a lower MED is preferred. An inbound route map that sets LOCAL_PREF to 200 for routes received from peer A therefore makes peer A's otherwise equivalent route the best path.
