You don't want to redistribute IBGP learned routes into IGPs because if you the
n
redistribute them back into BGP they will appear to originate from your AS. Ma
y
cause other problems as well (routing loops).

RFC 1771 forbids this capability but Cisco has a knob to allow it:

    router bgp 1
     bgp redistribute-internal

Note the help message:

    router(config-router)#bgp ?
      .
      .
      .
      redistribute-internal Allow redistribution of iBGP into IGPs (dangerous
)

gp
// routes...can someone confirm that this behaviour is by design?
