Usage
Information
In Non-Deterministic mode, paths are compared in the order in which they arrive. This method can lead to
Dell Networking OS choosing different best paths from a set of 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), Dell Networking OS 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.
bgp recursive-bgp-next-hop
Enable next-hop resolution through other routes learned by BGP.
Syntax
bgp recursive-bgp-next-hop
To disable next-hop resolution, use the no bgp recursive-bgp-next-hop command.

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.
