Here is part of an earlier e-mail I sent out about this subject:
<quote>
The "peer neighbor-route" command is needed normally for unnumbered links.
If a link is unnumbered a route will be needed to the remote side's IP
address. This "peer neighbor-route" command is how a route to the remote end
is created. If you disable the "peer neighbor-route" command on an
unnumbered link, a static route will normally be needed to reach the remote
end.
For someone to get an understanding of the "peer neighbor-route" command and
how it's used in the real world I recommend enabling PPP on a serial link
between two routers. Use IP unnumbered for the serial addressing based off
of each respective router's loopback interface. Then ping the remote end's
loopback. Now do the "no peer neighbor-route" command on each side of the
link and 'bounce' (shut/no shut) the interface. Try to ping the remote end's
loopback to see the benefit of having the "peer neighbor-route" command on.

Subject: peer neighbor route.,
Hello,
I am been looking this peer neighbor route command used under PPP.
Can someone explain to me what this command is actually for,
Yes, I have read that you can remove the /32 host routes it installs from
the far side of the link,
used for ISDN ..by typing the no form of the command.
but what is the purpose of this command when its turned on.
ex: Why would I want to use this command in the first place - or more to the
point what can I not do without it,..? What do I need /32 host routes for.
Anyone got an example.
Cisco website is vague of this stuff. or maybe its just the links I can find
are vague.
Any help appreciated.
Kind regards.
