N/A.
By default, the AS path length is considered in choosing the optimal
path.
BGP configuration mode.
The BGP will not take the length of the AS path into account when it
selects the optimal path as specified in RFC1771. In general, the
shorter the length of the AS path, the higher the path priority is.
Hence, we take the length of the AS path when we select the optimal
path. You can determine whether it is necessary to take the length of
the AS path into account when you select the optimal path according
to the actual condition.
