Lowest Origin Type is one
of important criteria for BGP best path selection.


- Prefer the path with the lowest origin type: IGP is
lower than EGP, and EGP is lower than INCOMPLETE. (IGP < EGP <
Incomplete)
- IGP origin is created when there is a network statement
-
EGP origin is created via ‘redistribute

- Incomplete origin
is created via redistribute
