For network route with multiple routing PEER, can share the active PEER selection mechanism?

We have same network route via HK, SG and JP routing PEER. Can we select the preferred one according to the location?

  • HK user --> HK routing PEER
  • SG user --> SG routing PEER
  • JP user --> JP routing PEER

Equal-metric routing peers are selected by lowest latency for geographic distribution, while different metrics provide primary/failover behavior.
