Hi all
A recommendation on preferred method of achieving the following
scenario:
[AS Y BGP Router]---[AS Z transit router][AS Z BGP
router]
AS Y router config
Neighbor BGP-Z-loopback as Z
Neighbor BGP-Z-loopback ebgp-multihop 10
Ip route x.x.x.x.
Hi William,
you cant have a router in the middle with less routing information than the
routers at the edge because as you say it doesnt know where to send the traffic.
If you dont want/cant run BGP on the transit router then a viable alternative
would be to have the transit router have a

Sure you can.
MPLS.
Or, GRE tunnels (admittedly not pretty, quite the hack job at that).

I agree with Stephen that you should try to avoid this router in the middle
(KISS). But if it really has to be there, is a GRE tunnel between AS-Y and
AS-Z-BGP-Router such an obscene idea?
