Loopback interfaces never go down, so the entire router would have to be
down before you loose your BGP peer. If you do it by physical interface, it
would only take the interface going down to loose the BGP peer.

Group,
I have seen lot of posts regarding the over configuration on the routers.
CCIE gurus have always instructed that we should configure only what is
asked. But I have seen two labs where in the question is asked to just
configure BGP peering between R1 &R2. On the solution book, it is configured
as peering between loopbacks. Is there any reason behind it ?? I agree that
this is too subjective. Just curious whether any has come across this
situation.
Thanks
Prem
