Hello,

I notice that when I use nei x.x.x.x update-source lo0 on both side of ibgp
nei that are directly connected they loose tcp connection with each other.
When I remove update-source statement from one nei and use the physical int.
they are able to establish tcp connection. Why is this the case. Are you
only suppose to use it only on side between two nei. Below is the config.

Router A
interface Loopback0
ip address 40.40.40.4 255.255.255.0
no ip directed-broadcast

interface Serial0
ip address 10.1.1.4 255.255.255.0
no ip directed-broadcast

router bgp 50
neighbor 10.1.1.1 remote-as 50
neighbor 10.1.1.1 update-source Loopback0
no auto-summary

Router Binterface Loopback0
ip address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0
no ip directed-broadcast

interface Serial0
