Hey Group,

I'm doing a little BGP lab here in my home, and I'm running into problems 
when trying to get the next-hop-self command to work in between IGP peers. 
Here's my topology:

r2503 --EBGP-- r2523 --IBGP-- r2504 --IBGP-- r2501
AS200          AS100          AS100          AS100


r2503 has no problem advertising its loopback (1.1.1.1/24) to r2523 through 
their EBGP connection. r2523 then sends the 1.1.1.1/24 route to r2504 while 
changing the next hop to r2523. The problem is that r2504 cannot send the 
1.1.1.1/24 router to r2501. I assumed that the next-hop-self command would 
be important in this situation, but it isn't working. Is there anything that 
I am doing wrong here?



Here are the configs (without unnecessary info):
