Re: [isp-bgp] BGP multihop

[Ton S <ton-s-lijst@...>]

ANY route will do. Even Default Gateway, or any other dynamic routing 
protocol. 
Heck, even a BGP route (from a different BGP process, but Cisco will not 
let you code more than one BGP instance per router) could do the trick.

as long as the route covers the destination, is valid, has a reverse 
path, the BGP session would come up

Usually EBGP is configured via a directly connected link to the neighbor but in cases where the neighbor might not be directly connected you would have to specify ebgp multiphop since the ttl on EBGP is 1 by default. You cannot use a default route for the peering relationship. It has to be specific. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks
