Can't find any doco on this issue.  Can anyone help?
R1------ethernet-------R2
r1 has a loopback 1.1.1.1/24,  r2 has a loopback 2.2.2.2/24,  ethernet
between them is 172.16.1.x/24 (.1 for R1,   . 2 for R2)
r1 has a static route for r2's loopback (2.2.2.2/24) pointing to the
ethernet ip (172.16.1.2) of r2 and can successfully ping it!
I tried to put a "ip local policy" on r2 rather than a static so that r2
can get to the loopback of r1.
I applied the local policy, created my route map using an extended ACL
saying "any" to "host 1.1.1.1"  and I "set  ip next-hop 172.16.1.1" of
the ethernet address of r1
 I did a debug ip policy, and sent some pings.  For some reason,  r2
sourced it's pings from 2.2.2.2 (it's loopback).  I thought it would
source it from the ethernet ip as any other packet.
when I changed it from source=any  destination=1.1.1.1  to
source=172.16.1.2 (r2's ethernet),   the policy route broke and was
normal forwarded per debug ip policy
from what I hear, or assume,  when do do policy routing. It uses the
lowest loopback on the router as the source.
Can anyone confirm?
