   Hi Ben
   I just received the other answers on this question!
   The most are good points, but what I'm still miss
   is the reason: Why would you like to see it as a
   BGP-Route in R3?

     If you have the following senario:
     
     (AS254)----|-R1--R2--R3-|
                 (AS5) (AS5)
     
     My routers are running OSPF.
     R1 and R3 are running BGP in AS5. R2 is not running BGP.
     A route coming from AS254 into AS5 (192.78.5.0) is redistributed at
     R1 into OSPF. The problem is that my routers see it as an OSPF
     route, not a BGP route, because of Admin Distance. What's the
     remedy?
     
     To see it as BGP-Routes, don't redistribute them to OSPF and run
     BGP everywhere.
     But I don't see any advantage of that!
     
     
     Thx,
     -Ben
     
     
     Best regards
