BGP IPv4 Table

Figure 2.111 shows the remote AS300 addresses learned from ASBR-200 (166.50.10.1) that have been installed into the BGP IPv4 table. For RR-200 to form an eBGP peering relationship with RR-300 it must first learn RR-300’s loopback address (156.50.10.4), which it does via iBGP + IPv4 + Label from ASBR-200
