There must be a non-default route to reach the other side. So anything
other than a 0/0 route will work.

If I remember correctly there was an old thread discussing this. The
conclusion is something like BGP need specific route to establish
peering. Not sure if there is anymore information as to why and so on.

R5 can ping R1; R5 uses default route to reach R1. R5 can not establish
BGP peering with R1 until I put static route - more specific than
0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 - WHY ?
