BGP: neighbor default-originate

        Has anyone had luck getting the 'neighbor default-originate' command to
work in BGP? Below in double quotes is what CCO says. I tried this on
different pairs of routers exactly as below with no luck (one pair of
routers use versions 12.2(5) and 12.0(5)T1 and the other pair use 12.0(5)T
and 12.0(9)).
        I was only able to get the 0.0.0.0 to propagate using 'ip route 0.0.0.0
0.0.0.0 null0' coupled with 'network 0.0.0.0'.

"To allow a BGP speaker (the local router) to send the default route 0.0.0.0
to a neighbor for use as a default route, use the neighbor default-originate
router configuration command.

This command does not require the presence of 0.0.0.0 in the local router.

In the following example, the local router injects route 0.0.0.0 to the
neighbor 160.89.2.3 unconditionally:

router bgp 109
 network 160.89.0.0
 neighbor 160.89.2.3 remote-as 200
 neighbor 160.89.2.3 default-originate"

        Thanks,

          Wayne
