protocols {
    bgp asn {

            med-out-delay minutes {
            }
        }
    }

Use the set form of this command to specify the time interval between the attempts to set a MED value.

Use the delete form of this command to disable the periodic MED update and hence the MED is updated every time the IGP metric changes.
