Of course most people will want to configure BGP using a shared prefix between the two routers because that's the easiest way to do it. But using loopback addresses isn't unheard of, because that way you can load balance across multiple interfaces without having to have a BGP session for each interface. -------------------------------------------------------------------- IETF IPv6 working group mailing list [email protected] Administrative Requests: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipv6 --------------------------------------------------------------------
