This read-create integer sets the route preference value applied to routes learned via LDP on this virtual router, used to rank LDP-derived routes against routes learned from other sources such as static configuration or other routing protocols when multiple sources offer a route to the same destination. An administrator wanting LDP-signaled LSP routes to take priority over a less-trusted redistributed static route to the same prefix would assign csLdpVrRoutePreference a lower, more preferred value than that of the competing source.
