Note!
All routers are configured as per topology diagram (pic. 1) and loopback advertised into BGP.

Configure BGP in AS 40, so that R2 prefers path through AS 13 towards 172.16.104.0/24.
Lab Solution
Task 1
Configure BGP in AS 40, so that R2 prefers path through AS 13 towards 172.16.104.0/24.
Pic. 2 - R2's BGP Table.
R2 prefers shorter path (through AS 40) to longer one (AS 13 and AS 40)
R4 Configuration:
!
ip prefix-list Lo0 seq 5 permit 172.16.104.0/24
!
route-map PREPEND permit 10
match ip address prefix-list Lo0
set as-path prepend 40 40 40
!
route-map PREPEND permit 999
!
match ip address prefix-list Lo0
set as-path prepend 40 40 40
!
route-map PREPEND permit 999
