RE: QQ

Depending on the IOS version, BGP might not allow telnet to its port and
will result in connection refused message.

The reason might be in asymmetrical routing between these routers. Check
what you have in the ip routing table and see if any of FR 0.0.0.0 (if
inverse arp is not disabled) influence OSPF to install unwanted elements
into the routing table.

Also see if there is an overlooked local policy routing in effect.

BGP by default will use the IP address of the outbound interface, unless
specifically pointed to an alternative.

-----
P.S.: copy-paste of full configuration and output of "show ip route" command
would reduce the scope of the issue.

hi,

Use this command to see if you have a BGP port listening on the other end of
the peering, and it will help u paste your configis

telnet <remote peering address> 179 /source-interface <your source peering
