Traffic is being sent through R1 instead of R2 because R1's route is considered the best path due to having a higher local preference value. In BGP, the path selection process prioritizes higher local preference values when determining the best route. In this case, the local preference for R1's route is set to 500, whereas R2's local preference is set to 100. Therefore, the router prefers to send traffic through R1.
C is correct.
BGP path selection: 1. Next hop must be resolved 2. Lowest preference (administrative distance) 3. Highest local preference 4. The path with the lowest AIGP attribute (never used this my self) 5. The shortest AS Path ..and a few more
