606 Local Preference with Route maps

In this video, Sikandar Shaik explains Local Preference (606) with Route Maps, a crucial concept in BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) used for influencing outbound routing decisions within an autonomous system (AS). Local Preference is a well-known BGP attribute that helps network administrators prioritize certain paths over others, ensuring efficient traffic flow and optimal network performance. What You Will Learn: ✅ Understanding Local Preference in BGP ✅ How Local Preference influences path selection ✅ Configuring Local Preference using Route Maps ✅ Differences between Local Preference and AS Path Prepending ✅ Real-world use cases of Local Preference in enterprise networks ✅ Hands-on configuration and verification on Cisco devices Why Local Preference is Important? BGP Local Preference is one of the most powerful tools for controlling outbound traffic in an AS. By assigning a higher Local Preference value, network engineers can determine the preferred exit point for routing traffic. This helps in load balancing, redundancy, and optimized traffic engineering.
