You can have any IP from one router peer to any other IP of another router as l
ong as there is a route between the two.
You only require ebgp-multihop if the 2 peer routers IP addresses are not direc
tly connected using the same linke, ie: 2 physical endpoints. If so, you count
the number of layer-3 hops between the 2 endpoints and use that as the paramet
er. And just to state the obvious, ebgp-mutihop is ony used when you connect d
ifferent AS's.... ie EBGP, not IBGP.

Quick question:
Do I have to have symmetrical configs on both sides? Can I have one loopback
on one AS try to peer with th serial on the other AS?
Also do I have to have "ebgp-multihop" whenever I use "update-source lo0"?
Thanks
Tarek
