EBGP peering - Simple Topology

EBGP peering Lab

The Topology above shows a simple EBGP peers, part of my study journey towards CCIE Routing and Switching certificate.
no matter how big your topology is, EBGP peering basically work the same way

Router #1 contains the configs below:
where the loopback interfaces are used as update source, this type of configs will require IGP route to each loopback interface in order for the routers to be able to
* Adding  the Command #ebgp multihop in order to increase the TTL to be more than 1 and also to cancel the connected check option between two BGP neighbors that requires two routers to be in the same subnet [ connected ] in order to be peers.

Now let's verify the configurations :



R1#show ip bgp
BGP table version is 4, local router ID is 100.100.100.100
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i - internal,
              r RIB-failure, S Stale
Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete
