cddHostDrpMed
Module: CISCO-DIST-DIRECTOR-MIB
OID (symbolic): CISCO-DIST-DIRECTOR-MIB::cddHostDrpMed
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.197.1.2.1.1.5
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: TruthValue
Access: read-write
Description: Enables/disables the drp-med option. The drp-med option enables the DD to use the BGP MED attribute in redirection decisions in cases where there is more than one DRP agent in the same autonomous system and at least two of the DRP agents point to different exit points for the same client network due to the way that BGP is set up in the AS.
What is cddHostDrpMed?
This object enables or disables using the BGP MED, or Multi-Exit Discriminator, attribute in redirection decisions, specifically useful when multiple DRP agents in the same autonomous system point to different exit points for the same client network. An admin enables this in multi-homed environments where more than one DRP agent could plausibly serve a client, so the Director can use BGP's own exit-point preference to break the tie rather than picking arbitrarily or by a metric that doesn't reflect actual routing policy. A network with two DRP agents at different internet exit points serving the same client subnet would enable this so the Director's server selection aligns with which exit point BGP actually considers preferred for that client network.
