RE: BGP - Connection refused by remote host

When the source is a loopback, ebgp-multihop must also be configured.

I would suspect that the remote bgp peer in the AS 54 expects a different
source IP address, because it's that end that closes the connection by
setting RST in TCP header.

Hi Cristian,

I will recreate the scenario and I will try to get to the same point as you.
I would also hard code the bgp router id and use ebgp multihop and see how
it goes.

Cheers,
Dan
