Hi James,

This looks like the answer I was looking for.

But, let me make sure I completely understand how to do what you're saying.

R1's config:

int tun 0
ip add y.y.y.y
tun source s0
tun dest y.y.y.z

int s0
ip access-group # <---- blocks bgp traffic

Now, if the neighbor comes up, I know that it's using the tunnel because the
physical int is blocking bgp traffic. Is this correct?

With your other suggestion, debug ip packets, what is the output I should
look for?

Thanks alot for your help.

BTW, have you set a date for your lab?

Tim
