It is subnetted down, and I am using the mask statement in my bgp network comma
nd. Buy yourself a beer anyway!

Qestion: The network connecting R1 to R4. Are you using its

natural mask or have you subnetted it down?

If you have subnetted it try using the network statement with a

mask as the end: i.e network 172.16.4.0 255.255.255.0

you might need the word mask in there somewhere.

Take a look at the samples on www.virtualrack.com they

have a 'sample ' problem that needs exactly this mask statement.

I dont know why you need it though.

If this is the correct answer then I'll buy myself a beer !
