In OSPF, Loopback addresses are advertised as host addresses with a /32 in
broadcast mode. By changing the network type to point-to-point it will
advertise the route with the network mask of /26.

This might be a simple answer. I have 3 routers:-

RTA --- RTB --- RTC - 205.40.30.131 /26

RTA & RTB - running EBGP
RTB & RTC - running OSPF

The network 205.40.30.131 is the IP of a Loopback interface, and it is
advertised by OSPF's network command.

OSPF is being redistributed into BGP at RTB.

At RTC:-

interface Loopback0
 ip address 205.40.30.131 255.255.255.192

router ospf 30
 log-adjacency-changes
 network 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 area 0
 network 205.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 area 51

Ok, here is what I'm confused about. At RTB, why is the BGP route for
205.40.30.131 is a /32 (host route??) rather than a /26, or am I missing
something important here??

RouterB#sh ip bgp
BGP table version is 4, local router ID is 172.17.1.1

Thanks for your help.
