Hi Johnny,

I did this lab just a few days ago and I believe that the links between R6 and
BB1 and R4 and BB3 are not in the included the IGP section so when you peer
via IBGP if you look at the next hop it will be those external links that the
peers don't know about. So your two options would be either to

1) Bring the links into the IGP domain
2) Use the next-hop-self command to advertise a known link to the IBGP peer

HTH,

Sorry to add to this, but I'm a little confused here.

To add to this, in lab 13 task 10.1, R4 is peering with BB3 which is in AS
54 and R6 is peering with BB1 which is also in AS 54..

On R4 we have neighbor 150.1.6.6 next-hop-self and on R6 we have neighbor
150.1.4.4 next-hop-self..

There an IGP route to R4 and R6's loopback addresses, so why do we need the
next-hop-self command?

Any idea's

Thanks for the help again.
