Thanks for that well how come site C will go to site A directly as they are not conected.....secondly first you said that the route will be advertise by default then u have a statement

"Just because this route is "connected" and it's a preferred route for Site B, does not mean it will be advertised in BGP"

Sorry i didnt get that. Now i have tried this scenario in lab at my home but it didnt advertise which is bit starnage......kindle see my tapologu and configs.

Router A

int serial 0/0 ip address 195.1.1.1 255.255.255.0

router Bgp 123

network 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0

neibour 195.1.1.2 remote-as 345

Router B

int serial serial 0/0 ip address 195.1.1.2 255.255.255.0

router bgp 345

neigbour 195.1.1.1 remote-as 123

now by doing that the router B got 192.168.1.0 route in his table now router B configs for zrouter c are:

router B

router bgp 345

neibour 196.1.1.2 remote as 555

Router C

router bgp 555

neibour 196.1.1.1 remote-as 345

so after that all bgo sessions were up but i couldntt see the route (192.168.1.0) route in C routing table or bgp table???? why is that as u said that by default b will be sending it to c....thanks

Thanks for that well how come site C will go to site A directly as they are not connected.

Based on your original post:

a) They are neighbors

b) Site A is advertising 192.186.1.0/24, not Site B.

secondly first you said that the route will be advertise by default then u have a statement

"Just because this route is "connected" and it's a preferred route for Site B, does not mean it will be advertised in BGP"

Sorry i didnt get that.

You said default, I didn't. The Bold portion of my post are quotes from your post.

I reiterate, in order for a route to be on BGP, you need to advertise such route under the BGP process. A connected route won't be advertised in BGP by default. You need to use the network command or redistribute static. Per your post, only Site A is advertising the route so Site C will go to Site A as that location is the only one advertising the route via BGP.

so after that all bgo sessions were up but i couldntt see the route (192.168.1.0) route in C routing table or bgp table????

Verify 192.168.1.0 is in the routing table on Router A. It needs to learn that route from Router B in order to install it in BGP. This process is often done either with a static route in Router A or an IGP (Interior Gateway Protocol) running between Router B and Router A. On your original post, I assume that task was completed.

Thanks for the posts guys.....now i will re phrase my question......site A is connected to site B and site C is connected with B. site C is not connected with site A. Now my question is if router A advertise a network to router B. Now router B has that route in its bgp table........router B is not advertising that route to c under network command. so will router C get that route automatically as router b and c are connected via BGP??? guys i wanna know the behavior of BGP??? i hope this is much better way to ask.

Yes, router C will receive that route by default.
