If we have scenario of 4 routers (Figure 9-7 p420 Semester 5 book), RTA and RTD are directly connected to each other reside in AS3.
RTC in AS1 directly connected to RTA.
RTD in AS2 and directly connected to RTC.
To advertise routes via BGP which are directly connected to a RTD , and I want to use network command (There are other commands).
We have to type in these :
RTD(config-router) network 172.16.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0
---I omitted the other commands
Or we can write it like this
Router(config-router) network 172.16.0.0 ---without specifying mask , because it will take default.
I found that there are two routes, which are directly connected to RTA (not RTD) have been added as well to the RTD network command not as neighbor?
And in other Labs I have not seen the same thing has been done ?
What is the key point for that ?

Hi
As far as the advertisement of networks is concerned you can always configure the same in conjuntion with the optional mask paramater or without mentioning the mask parameter.
As per your config params it will announce as a whole /16 network to the upstream the same can be done with or without the mask option..
But in case if you want to announce a /19 network then comes the mask option using which you can configure up the same..
network 10.1.0.0 mask 255.255.224.0

Thanks spremkumar.
What you have mentioned, I have got no confusion about that.
These are my queries :

RTA and RTB (Previous was RTD, mistakly)reside in AS3.
RTC reside in AS1 and directly connected to RTA (AS1).
RTD reside in AS2, and directly connected to RTC (AS1).
