According to Halabi (page 300):
"It is important to remember that the BGP peers will never become
established unless there is an IGP connectivity between the two peers or the
two peers are on the same segment."
Even though he doesn't mention static routes, I'd assume that is the third
(and final) way. So the syntax:
-----------------------------------
int s1
ip add 209.149.135.1 255.255.255.0
router bgp 3
neighbor 192.68.12.1 remote-as 2
neighbor 192.68.12.1 ebgp-multihop 2
------------------------------------
Won't do much good if this router doesn't have a route to 192.68.12.0
I suppose you could get by with "ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 s1" and leave it
up to the intermediate router to complete the route. But you wanted a way
to avoid that.

Subject: RE: EBGP peering question
I understand that part...I was trying to see if there are other ways to do
this ..without static or igp... A policy route on both routers with ip next
hop pointing to each other work too..
Are there other ways ?
Cheers,Padhu
2 more days to go....

BGP peers establish a TCP connection between the routers. If there are no
static or IGP routes to the router you're trying to peer with, it isn't
going to happen.
