Ok, I have an IBGP router with a bunch of routes in its BGP table. Unless
I disable synch, it does not post them in the main routing table. I assume
this is because it does not have an IGP route for the listed networks.
This confuses me somewhat though. If you have a ton of networks learned
via BGP and you are a transit AS that requires the use of intermediary
IGBP routers, why do you have to duplicate all of the routes via IGP just
to do routing? If thats the case why run BGP internally at all? Why no
just redist into OSPF? Obviously I'm missing something key.
Can anyone tell me where my thinking is awry here?
