BGP Next Hop
BGP Next Hop
in the BGP configuration below, I am not sure why on R2 and R3 the next hop is not the IP address of R1 interfaces ,either( 192.168.12.1 or 192.168.13.1)
I mean on R2 to reach the loopback (3.3.3.3) of R3, the Next-hop is showing the 192.168.13.3 and on R3 to reach the loopback(2.2.2.2) of R2, the Next-hop is showing 192.168.12.2
I thought the Next-hop should be the interfaces of R1either( 192.168.12.1 or 192.168.13.1)
I can ping 3.3.3.3 from R2 and 2.2.2.2 from R3
Thank you

Next hop self only changes the prefixes learned from EBGP peers, not route reflected IBGP prefixes. There is an option to do next hop self all. If your version has that option it will change the next hop for IBGP and EBGP learned prefixes.
I removed the Next-hop- self.. I agree it does not have any impact.
What I need to point out is I can ping loopback of R3 from R2 with source loopback of R2 and can do the same thing from the R3 source loopback.
At this point is Next-Hop important ?
What I need to point out is I can ping loopback of R3 from R2 with source loopback of R2 and can do the same thing from the R3 source loopback.

I will take it back (regarding the ping from loopback to loopback).. because I have static route that has achieved that on R2 and R3
R2(config)# ip route 3.3.3.3 255.255.255.255 192.168.12.1

R3(config)# ip route 2.2.2.2 255.255.255.255 192.168.13.1
Next hop self isn't important if your concern is IBGP routes. You are already using a route reflector and as stated next hop self is normally for EBGP announced prefixes.

Post the output of sho ip route on your 3 routers. Currently it looks like you aren't even using any BGP routes. So they must be resorting to an underlying IGP, connected, or static routes.
Another thing to remember is IBGP routes have a high adminstrative distance, so though they show in the BGP table, they usually don't show in the RIB.

i had some time spare, and a couple of router from a lab on the desk. ;)
so i just build his setup fast.
he was also missing his redistribution of the connected loopback.

Thank you... Corrected as suggested
So on R2 next hop is the ip address of R3
*>i3.3.3.3/32 192.168.13.3 0 100 0 i
and on R3 the next hop is the ip address of R2

yes, this is correct, router 2 and 3 cant directly connect to the other. for this reason next-hop self. router 1 has all the routes and all traffic will flow through

in this lab, the neighborship peering is done on directly connected interfaces on the links 192.168.12.0 and 192.168.13.0
if I need to build the neighborship peering just on Loopback interfaces behind R2 and R3, is that possible ?
I mean in addition to Update-Source Loopback commands that will be issued on R2 and R3 then will I need to use static routes for reachability between all routers including physical and loopback interfaces?
this is just brief question and I will test it in a LAB and post new question later
