The simple rule is "reachability"... most of the time in an IBGP setup,
you're already maintaining route entries for your various loopback
addresses. In an EBGP setup (particularly in reality), the other routers
are not going to have a clue how to get to your loopback address, therefore
it's not going to work.

Hi there,

I found that I can not use loopback interfaces as
sourc of BGP between EBGP, but IBGP works fine, is it
a rule?
Thanks

Stella
