bgp bestpath compare-confed-aspath

This command specifies that the AS confederation path length must be used, when available, in
the BGP best path decision process. It is effective only when bgp bestpath as-path ignore
command has not been specified.
By default, if BGP receives routes with identical eBGP paths from eBGP peers, BGP does not
continue to consider any AS confederation path length attributes that may be associated with
the routes.
The no bgp bestpath compare-confed-aspath command returns the switch to the
default state, where the switch ignores AS confederation path length in the BGP best path
selection process.
