Ok, I understand it now, using SoO together as-override. That is a very
clear example/picture.

Thanks both for your help,

One another question,.. as-override works in the incoming direction, isn't?

Well, it depends who you are :) but yes that's pretty much it.

Please see this:

But still the critical point is that you clearly understand the difference
between the allowas-in and as-override commands when it comes to designing a
discontinuous BGP network. It's the difference between you can, you want and
you should :) - Being the SP or the customer brings new challenges to this
picture but in order to pass the R&S track don't worry about them.
