Dear Prasad,
I think you're right. the C route is indeed there even when BB1 is
disconncted.I think you could try another way. Since you need to make sure
BB1 is ACTIVE otherwise you would not advertise the default route. So you
have to let R1 know if BB1 is alive. There is a way to solve this. Make a
Rip between R1 and BB1, from which R1 should learn a route(say,a Loopback
address)from BB1.If the learned route disappear,then R1 knows it lose the
connection to BB1.Here is the configuration:
R1
router rip
version 2
no auto
network 204.12.0.0

route-map RIP
match ip address 1
access-list 1 permit 3.0.0.0

router os 1
default-information originate route-map RIP

BB1
int loopback 1
ip add 3.3.3.3 255.255.255.0
router rip
version 2
no auto
network 3.0.0.0
network 204.12.0.0
------------------------------------------------------
Now you got what you want.
