I wanted to run this by the group.
My standard bgp template
router bgp 200
no synchronization
bgp router-id 150.50.2.2
bgp log-neighbor-changes
distance bgp 190 200 200
no auto-summary
The reason I change the distance of bgp is because of routing loops I
keep getting due to peering to /32 loopbacks.
Can you think of a reason not to prefer igp routes verses bgp routes to
the same prefix? Nearly in all the cases I don't want a route from bgp
if my igp already has it.
On the other hand, if IGP doesn't have it, it gets installed into the
routing table anyway, even at the higher distance 190.
Plus BGP isn't like IGP's, it doesn't care if it's in the routing table
or not.
I can't think of any problems with this, can you?
