Hi,
When should one use the command "neighbor x.x.x.x ebgp-multihop"?
Some cisco document on the web just says as follows:
- "Use the ebgp-multihop command only when the ip address you are peering
to
on your eBGP peer is not directly connected"
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
This command is used when trying to load balance with
an ebgp peer. Typically this is when your neighbour
statement is mapped to the ebgp peers loopback
address.

You need this command when you are talking to a neighbor not connected to
the same IP segment. For instance, if the serial interfaces are numbered
and you want to talk loopback interface to loopback interface, you need the
multihop because the serial interface addresses are between the loopback
a
rface, so make sure you make a static route to reach
>the peer`s loopback also.

Except when you're in the lab exam and you can't use static routes. ;^)
