Lab 5 Task 6.5 and 6.6:
Create a new loopback interface on SW1 with the IP address 162.X.7.7/24 and advertise it into BGP.

Create a new loopback interface on SW2 with the IP address 162.X.18.8/24 and advertise it into BGP.

SW1:
interface Loopback1
ip address 162.1.7.7 255.255.255.0
!
router bgp 65002
network 162.1.7.0 mask 255.255.255.0

SW2:
interface Loopback1
ip address 162.1.18.8 255.255.255.0
!
router bgp 65002
network 162.1.18.0 mask 255.255.255.0

Why did he advertise 162.1.7.0 or 162.1.18.1.0 ? why didnt he advertise 162.1.7.7 or 162.1.18.0 ?
