In the lab, don't over read questions!

If the requirement is to advertise x.x.x.x via bgp, the do it. The only
assumption I would make is that it should show up in the other bgp
routers tables, because of the word 'through' which implies at least two
end points.

You can always read ahead to see if there's any other requirements
referencing the x.x.x.x network.

Subject: [Urgent] What's this simple BGP qn asking for?

Qn: On R1, assign and advertise x.x.x.x through BGP.

x.x.x.x is not being advertised by any other protocols.

So what is this question asking for?

Just make x.x.x.x appear in all BGP routers' BGP table, don't care if
it's pingable?

Or must the whole network (non-BGP routers too) be able to ping
x.x.x.x?

If it's the latter, can I advertise x.x.x.x through IGP or must I
redistribute BGP into IGP on R1?

Last 3 days, would greatly appreciate some help. Thanks.

Regards,
Eric Ong
