Configuring the Default Local_Pref Attribute

Context

The Local_Pref attribute is used to determine the optimal route for outgoing traffic of an AS. When a BGP device obtains multiple routes to the same destination address but with different next hops from different IBGP peers, the BGP device prefers the route with the highest Local_Pref value.
