paths, depending on the order in which they are received from the neighbors

because MED may or may not get compared between adjacent paths. In

Deterministic mode (no bgp non-deterministic-med), the system compares

MED between adjacent paths within an AS group because all paths in the AS group

are from the same AS.

When you change the path selection from Deterministic to Non-Deterministic, the

path selection for the existing paths remains Deterministic until you enter the

clear ip bgp command to clear existing paths.

9.2(0.0) Introduced on the MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module.

Usage Information

This command is a knob to disable BGP next-hop resolution using BGP learned

routes. During the next-hop resolution, only the first route that the next-hop

resolves through is verified for the route’s protocol source and is checked if the

route is learned from BGP or not.

The clear ip bgp command is required for this command to take effect and to

keep the BGP database consistent. Execute the

clear ip bgp command right

after executing this command.

Commands

clear ip bgp — clears the ip bgp.
