Cisco CCNP Service Provider 350-501 Question # 32 Topic 4 Discussion

To redirect traffic from ASN 64501 to 10.0.0.0/8 via the primary link North_A instead of the slow backup link North_B, setting a higher local preference between North_A and South_A is required. Local preference is a BGP attribute that helps in selecting the exit point from an AS (Autonomous System). By increasing local preference for routes received on North_A, traffic will be directed through this path as it becomes more preferred. References := Cisco Implementing and Operating Cisco Service Provider Network Core Technologies (SPCOR)
