All,
    I was looking at the basic BGP lab from Fatkid.com, and in their
configs, they have a router that is distributing all of it's eigrp 1 routes
into bgp 200, and all of it's bgp 200 routes into eigrp 1. I did the lab,
and it seems to work as expected, but I'm curious why this doesn't create a
routing loop of sorts. Shouldn't each of the routing processes be
advertising each other's routes back to themselves? (i.e., isn't bgp
learning the eigrp routes and advertising them back to eigrp) It's late,
and maybe my head isn't screwed on too tight tonight, but I'm not getting
this one? Any input is greatly appreciated..

Thanks,
  Kelly Cobean
