Operation
Configure transmission of a default route to a
peer group
Configure no transmission of a default route
to a peer group
By default, a local router does not send a default route to any peer group.
However, if you use the peer default-route-advertise command, the local router
sends a default route, with itself as the next hop, to the peer even if there is no
default route in BGP routing table.
Configuring the BGP Router as the Next Hop in a Route
A BGP router can specify itself as the next hop while advertising a route to a peer
group.
Table 101 Configuring the Advertiser as the Next Hop in a Route
Operation
Configure itself as the next hop in advertising
route
Disable the specification of itself as the next
hop in advertising route
By default, local router does not specify itself as the next hop while advertising
route to a peer group.

transmitting update messages.
