Virtual Private Routed Network Services
7750 SR OS Services Guide Page 1097
A route can be learned by the router from different protocols in which case the costs are not
comparable, when this occurs the preference is used to decide to which route will be used.
Different protocols should not be configured with the same preference, if this occurs the tiebreaker is
per the default preference table as defined in Table 7. If multiple routes are learned with an identical
preference using the same protocol, the lowest cost route is used.
If multiple routes are learned with an identical preference using the same protocol and the costs
(metrics) are equal, then the decision of what route to use is determined by the configuration of the
ecmp in the config>router context.
The no form of the command reverts to the default value.
Default preference 10 — OSPF internal routes have a preference of 10.
Parameters preference — The preference for internal routes expressed as a decimal integer. Defaults for different
route types are listed in Table 7.
