Step 7
Configuring the BGP Cost Community
Perform this task to configure the BGP cost community.
BGP receives multiple paths to the same destination and it uses the best-path algorithm to decide which is the
best path to install in RIB. To enable users to determine an exit point after partial comparison, the cost
community is defined to tie-break equal paths during the best-path selection process.
