Wait, wait, wait... Did they just say 'North_B' is a 'slow backup link'? That's like putting a turbo on a horse-drawn carriage!

Nah, I don't think setting a lower Weight value for incoming traffic on North_A is the right move here. Seems a bit too complicated.

Oh, wait, hold on. Wouldn't setting a lower MED between North_B and South_B also work? That's an interesting approach.

User 1: Setting a lower MED between North_B and South_B could work too.

Hmm, I think option B is the way to go. Advertising the 10.0.0.0/8 prefix through North_B while sending the specific subnets through North_A should do the trick.
