Greg,

That's what we thought. But in this case, the MED comparision will always be
skipped, because one of the neighbor is reside in the same AS. Please see my
other post which includes my config and output. There's no problems in
Halabi's book pg 337-340 or Doyle II's pg pg 107-108 examples. The question
is what does router do when it learns the same route from both ebgp and
ibgp. From what I've seen so far, no problems when it learns the route from
ebgps, and no problems when it learns the router ibgp, but it seems it will
not compare MED if the route is learned from both ebgp and ibgp.

I'm confused as usual...

Thanks,
Chang
