Hi I haven't read that url yet, but "Normal" setups would have BGP peer directly connected, but with with the multihop (loopback ip) resulting in physical interface of immediate peer becoming the intermediate hop. I can't imagine designing a bgp network where peers are remote. Maybe gre tunnel for some quirky minds... Any ideas (scenarios) where bgp peer is remote and an intermediate router is the bone in the kebab?

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.
