BIRD: route selection question

[Mikhail A. Grishin]

Hi,

Why in the example below, the route via 194.226.100.51 is the best?

According http://bird.network.cz/?get_doc&f=bird-6.html#ss6.1
Route selection rules
...
"Prefer the lowest value of the Multiple Exit Discriminator."

And at both peers we have commented string
---
# default bgp_med 0; # MED value we use for comparison when none is defined
---
and the default value is 0.

Probably, for the route via 194.226.100.45 , the MED should be counted
as zero, and this route should win?

BIRD 1.2.5 ready.
