BGP rib failure on directly connected EBGP neighbours

Level 6

Hi all,

I have two Routers directly connected by fast ethernet interface.

They are in different AS.

R1  config

network 20.1.46.0 mask 255.255.255.0

neighbor 20.1.46.1 remote-as 7500

we can see that R1 is advertising route 

sh ip bgp
BGP table version is 2, local router ID is 100.100.100.100
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i - internal,
              r RIB-failure, S Stale
Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete

   Network          Next Hop            Metric LocPrf Weight Path
*> 20.1.46.0/24     0.0.0.0                  0         32768 i

R2 

R2#sh ip bgp
BGP table version is 6, local router ID is 20.1.46.1
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i - internal,
              r RIB-failure, S Stale
Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete

   Network          Next Hop            Metric LocPrf Weight Path
r> 20.1.46.0/24     20.1.46.2                0             0 6500 i

R2# sh ip bgp rib-failure
Network            Next Hop                      RIB-failure   RIB-NH Matches
20.1.46.0/24       20.1.46.2           Higher admin distance              n/a


R2# sh ip route 20.1.46.2
Routing entry for 20.1.46.0/24

Questions

1>So my understanding is that R2 does not installed BGP External route in Main routing table as EBGP AD is 20 and its more than directly connected

route which is 0 right??????????

2> secondly my understanding is that R2 is learning about route 20.1.46.0  by two ways-------

--------------- BGP and as directly connected right???

3>Is their any way that R2 can show 20.1.46.0 as BGP route in main routing table???????

Thanks
