hello,
below topology R2,R5,R6,R8 running bgp protocol. R5 to R6 iBGP peering ospf as tcp session.R2-R5 egp R6-R8 egp.
R2&R8 advertise its loopback to R5 and R6. R5 and R6 configured next hop-self cmd. but when R6 or R8 try to reach R2 loop interface it shows the transit link of r5 and r2. is there anyway without advertise the link between r5 to r2 in to bgp to make reachable.
