Explanation

A: The LOCAL_PREF attribute is a well-known attribute that represents the network operator's degree of preference for a route within the entire AS. The larger the value of the local preference, the more preferable the route is, B: The BGP NEXT_HOP is a well-known mandatory attribute. The Next Hop attribute is set when a BGP speaker advertises a prefix to a BGP speaker outside its local autonomous system (it may also be set when advertising routes within an AS, this will be discussed in later sections). The Next Hop attribute may also serve as a way to direct traffic to another speaker, rather than the speaker advertising the route itself References:
