Hi ,
Please refer to the topology on the following link :
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk365/technologies_tech_note09186a00800c95bb.shtml#ebgpmultihop
Explaination says that :
RTB indicates a neighbor that has direct connection, which is 129.213.1.2.
RTA indicates an external neighbor that does not have direct connection.
I didn’t understand it. There are only two routers in the topology. Then one router has direct connection but not the other router..What’s this ??
On RTA, what is the significance of using neighbor 180.225.11.1 instead of using neighbor 129.213.1.3 ?
Afterall both, 129.213.1.3 and 180.225.11.1 are referring to the same non-cisco router RTB..
Is it because of the fact that 180.225.11.1 means bgp router-id on RTB or what ??
Please help..
