Configuring The Origin Attribute - Motorola BSR 2000 Configuration And Management Manual

Release 1.0
Example: Using a Route Map to Set the Local Preference
A route map setting the local preference allows more flexibility in determining
updates from a specific AS. In the previous example, all updates received by Router
Boston are set to a local preference of 200 (including updates from AS 500).
Use a route map to specifically assign a local preference for updates from AS 400. In
this example, all local preference attributes from updates coming from AS 400 are set
to 200.
The following commands configure Router Boston:
The following commands specify that the local preference attribute for updates

IGP – indicates that the route was learned via an IGP and, therefore, is interior to
the originating AS.
EGP – indicates that the route was learned via EGP.
Incomplete – indicates that the origin of the route is unknown. It was learned
from something other than IGP or EGP. Incomplete origin occurs when a route is
distributed into BGP. This value most often appears for static routes.
