Reinhold,

Yes you are right. Thanks a lot for the prompt respone. May be I was
exhausted and did it reverse. Here is my BGP table and I see RIB-Failure for
1.1.1.1 and 4.4.4.4 in R4 and R1 respectively. I belive this is because I'm
already learning these routes via IGP and also adv it via BGP. Right?

R1#sh ip bgp | beg Network
   Network Next Hop Metric LocPrf Weight Path
*> 1.1.1.0/24 0.0.0.0 0 32768 i
r> 4.4.4.0/24 4.4.4.4 0 0 4 i
*> 172.10.23.0/24 4.4.4.4 0 4 23 i

R4#sh ip bgp | beg Network
   Network Next Hop Metric LocPrf Weight Path
r> 1.1.1.0/24 1.1.1.1 0 0 1 i
*> 4.4.4.0/24 0.0.0.0 0 32768 i
*> 172.10.23.0/24 172.10.124.2 0 23 i

Thanks,
Mushtaq
