BGp synchronization Tips

Hi folks, sorry about this simple doubt, but, i just wanna some tips about ibgp
 over synchronization environment.

R8 peer with R2 and receives: 200.2.2.0/24 from AS 2.

R7 peering R8 using synchronzation (AS87). R7 receives this route and place it
as valid route because in the R8 i have redistributed BGP command under ospf pr
ocess.

As ospf has Administrative distance equal 110, and iBGP equal 200, this route n
ever comes up from BGP in R7, if i put this route with administrative route > 2
00 in OSPF process, bgp cannot to put this route in your routing table.

I have tried to configure R7 to set distance to this route to 220 under osp pro
cess. After to do this, the R7 has the follow entry in osp table:

R7#sh ip route 200.2.2.0
Routing entry for 200.2.2.0/24
  Known via "ospf 10", distance 220, metric 49
...
!
Note that the route now has the distance 220 and this routestill is over ospf a
nd it is not valid from BGP table:

R7#sh ip bgp
BGP table version is 42, local router ID is 200.87.87.1
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i - internal
Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete
   Network Next Hop Metric LocPrf Weight Path
* i200.2.2.0 138.1.8.8 0 100 0 2 i
*> 200.87.87.0 0.0.0.0 0 32768 i

 Does exist some solution for to R7 places this route into bgp table or this ne
ver will happen?

thanks in advance.

Follow my configuration...

R8)
router ospf 10
 redistribute bgp 87 subnets
 network 138.1.0.0 0.0.255.255 area 0
!
router bgp 87
 neighbor 138.1.2.2 remote-as 2
 neighbor 138.1.2.2 ebgp-multihop 15

 neighbor 138.1.2.2 soft-reconfiguration inbound

Follow the shows without change the Administrative distance to 220 in R7 to 200
.2.2.0 route:
R7#sh ip bgp
BGP table version is 67, local router ID is 200.87.87.1
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i - internal
Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete

*> 200.87.87.0 0.0.0.0 0 32768 i
!
