Sorry I should've clarified ..... I had configured the "neighbor 10.100.83.1 re
mote-as 100" prior to attempting to add the "neighbor filter-list weight" comma
nd. My config is as below before trying the command.

router bgp 30
 bgp log-neighbor-changes
 redistribute ospf 30
 neighbor 10.100.83.1 remote-as 100
 neighbor 10.100.83.1 ebgp-multihop 2
 neighbor 10.100.83.1 update-source Loopback0
 neighbor 10.100.83.1 filter-list 1 out
 neighbor 10.200.60.1 remote-as 200
 neighbor 10.200.60.1 ebgp-multihop 2
 neighbor 10.200.60.1 update-source Loopback0
 neighbor 10.200.60.1 filter-list 1 out
 no auto-summary

I guess I found a workaround .... I used route maps to set the weight and appli
ed the route map to the neighbour and it worked.

Just curious to see if anyone else has come across this "Bad Argument" problem

Did you configure the neighbour before !?
Was just thinking, because you have to enter the
neighbour statement with the remote-as before anything else...

Not shure if this helps :)
