Hi,
I've heard 2 points of view on whether or not for ibgp, peering should be
done between loopbacks or between physical interfaces when the lab doesn't
require it either explicitly or implicitly.
Pro:
Using loopbacks is more robust & should always be used as a matter of
course.
Con:
If it's not required, it's not worth the extra time it takes to config &
only adds an extra layer of complexity which could potentially use up alot
of time if it's not configured correctly from the getgo.
Furthermore, you'll probably need every minute available for other things,
so don't use time that don't earn you points.
To me, both arguments are strong. So, I wonder which point of view to
adopt.
Thanks, PM
