bgp default local-preference
This command changes the default local preference value. The path with the highest local
preference value is preferred over competing paths to the same destination provided that all
higher‐ranking route selection criteria of those paths are the same. The local preference value for
the path is sent to all routers and access servers in the local AS.
Syntax
bgp default local-preference value
Syntax of the “no” Form
The no form of this command reverts to the local preference default:
no bgp default local-preference
