When going through labs, do not try to compare them to real world best practices. Certain things are done in the labs to try to create a problem that you are forced to correct in some other way by testing your skills.

Hi all, I have some question on LAB20 where I got stuck comparing the final configs. - Why is OSPF to BGP, BGP to OSPF redistributed on R5 and R6? To me it would be enough only on one router to get all routes, isn't it? - Why in BGP eBGP multihop is configured? The configs have configured the Interface address as neighbor and we are not sourcing from Loopback, so that's not needed, isn't it? - On R6 the Final configs show only the keyword no-prepend in BGP but to me in order to not advertise the AS600 which is requested by the task, we would have to configure ...no-prepend replace-as. Isn't it? Would be very great if someone could give me the answer to these points. Thank you all Roger
