Annu,
please tell me which exact router/IOS version do you have on R2.
In your description below, I guess by "backdoor 175.10.10.0"
you mean "router bgp x/network 175.10.0.0 backdoor".
Please pay attention not only to the syntax but also to
the mask! (175.10.0.0 w/o mask is /16)
It has to match for it to work.
