I would clarify that the rule here is that you each BGP speaking router needs to have a route to the Next Hop routers advertised into the AS. *** REPLY SEPARATOR *** On 12/21/2000 at 9:43 PM Katson PN Yeung wrote: >In case you have 2 routers connect back-to-back with iBGP, y

In case you have 2 routers connect back-to-back with iBGP, you don't need IGP. ""Shaw, Winston Mr 5 SIG CMD"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > I saw this original question yesterday but got sidetracked before I could > send a response. > I think

But remember, you have to do full iBGP peering inside your AS. When you have two routers, it wouldn't be a problem for no IGP. When you have more than two, unless they are connected by a share medium (such as Ethernet) and peer using the connected interface, otherwise, you have to make some intra
