Just want to comment on this. It is my understanding that generally
speaking, static routes are not allowed in the lab unless specifically
stated. I suspect that if you wish to configure ebgp between two non
directly connected neighbors and the question does not state that you
can use static then it would be interesting. (in this case, I expect the
instructions will allow one to use static but one cannot assume that.
