Hi JP,

The way I understand is, treat the BGP table as a database like the OSPF
database, I mean, it is like a topology for the BGP. Take note that the BGP
protocol has the algorithim to select the best path from its BGP table. When
the best path is selected, it places the route in to the IP routing table
where you can now have a successful ping to this network. Well of course,
many issues like next hop and synch are to be checked to name a few.

HTH......Cheers

Chris
