Syntax Description

external-distance

Administrative distance for BGP external routes. External routes are routes for which the best path is learned from a neighbor external to the autonomous system. Accept table values are from 1 to 255. The default is 20. Routes with a distance of 255 are not installed in the routing table.

internal-distance

Administrative distance for BGP internal routes. Internal routes are those routes that are learned from another BGP entity within the same autonomous system. Accept table values are from 1 to 255. The default is 200. Routes with a distance of 255 are not installed in the routing table.

local-distance

Administrative distance for BGP local routes. Local routes are those networks listed with a network router configuration command, often as back doors, for that router or for networks that are being redistributed from another process. Accept table values are from 1 to 255. The default is 200. Routes with a distance of 255 are not installed in the routing table.
