What does the path on the EBGP peer look like? You need confed-id on all
IBGP peers?

I have just configured the scenario below on my lab and it
appears that the internal BGP peers do not need to know the Confed id or
peers. If I look at the bgp table all the correct routing info is getting
passed i.e. an internal bgp router 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 you only have to configure confed and peers only on the
borders.
correct me if I am wrong here.

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 !!
