Alright i understand that bit
The part that puzzles me is........
How come you would normally configure" Prom" on both border peers.
How does each border peer create a connection to the other if they both
have "prom" configured
This is having the impression that "Prom" means "do not initiate connection
but recieve connections"
Imputs will be well appreciated

Subject: RE: when should we use" promiscuous" keyword in dlsw config?
Steve,
Promiscuous mode simply means allow connections to this box from anyone,
whether they are a defind peer, by dlsw remote-peer command or not.
Usefull if you have loads of remote peers peering to one box and you don't
want to codes loads of lines of remote peer statements.
Peers groups are a bit different, for full explanation I would look it up
on
CCO if I were you.
Thanks
Steve

Do you mean this when some time if you don't know a remote-peer's ip
address?
If two dlsw router configured "local-peer ...promiscuous",no remote peer
config,
they can build peer relation once they have route to each other?
Right?
Thanks.
