I have just configured the scenario below on my lab and it appears that the int
ernal BGP peers do not need to know the Confed id or peers. If I look at the b
gp table all the correct routing info is getting passed i.e. an internal bgp ro
uter still sees in its bgp routing table that networks have
came from certain confeds i.e. as path = (8) (7) 254 23. I believe now that yo
u only have to configure confed and peers only on the borders.
correct me if I am wrong here.

Yes,
you have to configure all routers within your confederation with you
confederation id.

Subject: BGP Confederations
Hi,
If you have 4 routers within an confederation r1,r2,r3&r4. R1 has and
EBGP connection to another As so therefore has the bgp confederation id
and confed peer statements on it. My question is do all of the IBGP
router (r2,r3&r4) require the confed statements on them even if they are
only IBGP
routers??
14 days to go!! Starting to have some fun !!
