BGP Multihoming issues (local-pref)

Hi all,

I am trying to control the exit point to 2 different /24 nets in an external AS
using local-pref. It seems to work OK but I am hoping there is a "tidier" way
.

Also, on my AS1 iBGP routers (lots of them) when I do show ip bgp 172.16.1.0
there is only one entry (pref300). I am sure there should be the second pref
100 route in the table with no >. If I shut one of the exit points and clear i
p
bgp *, the pref 100 replaces the lost 300 but I still think both entrys should
exist when show ip bgp net.
