Description
Use the drop-down menu to Add or Delete a sequence entry.
Click the radio button to set the next hop attribute. Use the drop-down menu to select
between IP Address and Peer Address.
IP Address - IP address to set.
Peer Address - This will take effect for both the ingress and egress directions. For ingress
direction, the next hop will be set to the neighbor peer address. For egress direction, the
next hop associated with the route in the packet will be the local router ID address.
Click the radio button to enter the metric.
The BGP router will not send metrics associated with a route by default unless the metric
is egress set in the route map.
If the BGP route receives a route with a metric, then this metric will be used in best path
selection. This can be overwritten by the metric that is ingress set for the route. If the
received route has neither metric attribute nor metric ingress metric set, then the default
metric (0) will be associated with the route for the best path selection. If med-missing-as-
worst is enabled for the router, then a value of infinite will be associated with the route.
This will take effect for both ingress and egress directions.
