Re: BGP routing loop?

WHich ones are your loopbacks ? A diagram will help. A route to either
loopback needs to be known via IGP first. BGP will show connected
state and hence the flapped route. If RIp is the IGP then the loopbacks
should only be known to RIP. Then you can use the update-source
loop 0.
