Mode
Route‐map configuration:
Router(config-route-map)#
Default
The default value for this command is the default value for the origin code. The default value for
the origin code is incomplete for routes that are advertised into BGP by means of the redistribute
command.
Example
The following example configures the set origin value for redistributed static routes:
XSR(config)#route-map 1 permit 1
XSR(config-route-map)#set origin igp
XSR(config-route-map)#exit
XSR(config)#router bgp 100
XSR(config-router)#redistribute static route-map 1
set weight
This command specifies the weight value for matching BGP routing table entries. Be sure that a
match clause has been specified.
Weight is used for best path selection and is assigned locally to the router. It is not propagated or
carried through any route updates. Routes with a higher weight are preferred when multiple
routes exist to the same destination.
Syntax
set weight weight
Syntax of the “no” Form
The no form of this command removes the weight value:
no set weight weight

Route‐map configuration:
Router(config-route-map)#

weight
Weight is local to the XSR on which it is configured, and it is not propagated in BGP
routing update messages. But, it is the first value considered in the BGP route
selection process. Routes with the higher weight are prefered over alternate routes
to the same destinations but with a lower weight. Range: 0 to 65535.
