Possible forms of the command configuration:

[no] bgp max-med administrative <max-med-value>
[no] bgp max-med on-startup <period>
[no] bgp max-med on-startup <period> <max-med-value>

DESCRIPTION:

'administrative' takes effect from the time of the config until the config is
removed.

'on-startup' is effective only at the startup time for the given '<period>'
after the first peer is established.

'<max-med-value>' is used as the MED value to be sent out when the max-med
is effective. Default max-med value is 4294967294.

NOTE:
When max-med is active, MED is changed only in the outgoing attributes to the
peers, it doesn't modify any MED specific state of the attributes in BGP on
the local node.
