Can you shutdown 206.11.20.17 with debug ip routing and debug ip bgp /
updates running and let us know if its going via the other one ?

Cheers,Padhu

genltemen ;
i read most of the posts until now and i didnt find any convencing answer.
the static routes config are not allowed unless specified .so i cannot
configure static routes to point to both of the links otherwise it will be
static routes load balancing.
the other solution of config with loopbacks and multihop is ok ,but this is
another way to config the balance plus the the lab solutions is showing the
ser IP as the peer address .
no synch is helpless here since the routes are learned externally ,no synch
will affect only when the routes are learnt internally to let them appear in
the route table and then propagated.
the last answer was about the confederation ,R2 and R5 are in confederation
inside the AS 200 ,the AS 300 has nothin to do with that since confederation
should be transparen to it .

as per halabi ,once you put the maximum path command ,any routes learnt from
two peers in the same AS and showing in the BGP table ,should appear in the
routing table as well...this doesnt happen with me .
the two routes are in the BGP table and the prefered one is based on the
lowest IP (this means they are identical in everything ) ,however they dont
show in the route table .......

anything there i missed ?????
