Network command has preference overthe re-distributed routes. When the locally originated route is no longer present in the database the other route isautomatically installed.In BGP, the next-hop for the route is calculated from the information that is acquired through IGP or static routes.Related Commands • redistribute — redistribute routes into BGP.network backdoorSpecify this IGP route as the preferred route.Syntax network ip-address mask backdoorTo remove a network, use the no network ip-address mask backdoor command.Parameters ip-address Enter an IP address in dotted decimal format of the network.mask Enter the mask of the IP address in the slash prefix length format (for example, /24).Border Gateway Protocol 405
