I agree with B, but I can see why some might think C.

Wait, why would it go to all routers? Seems off.

Definitely option B! That's how iBGP works.
TH

I think it only goes to R2 and R3, not all.
BE

The update goes to all routers in ISP 1.
TE

I thought updates were only sent to directly connected peers, so maybe it's just R2 and R3, like in option B?

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like it might just go to R2 and R3, but I can't recall the exact details.

I remember something about updates being sent to all peers in a full mesh, so maybe it's option C?

I think the update goes to all routers in ISP 1, but I'm not completely sure if that's how iBGP works.

Alright, time to apply my BGP knowledge. I'll analyze the options and eliminate the incorrect ones to find the best answer.

I've got a good handle on iBGP, so I'm confident I can figure out the right way router R1 would handle this update.

Ugh, BGP can be so confusing sometimes. I'll have to review the iBGP rules and propagation before answering this.

Okay, let me visualize the network topology and BGP update flow. I think I can work this out step-by-step.
CO

Hmm, this looks like a tricky BGP question. I'll need to think through the full iBGP mesh scenario carefully.

I'm a little confused by this question. The different plan names sound similar, and I'm not sure I fully understand the differences between them. I'll have to review my notes and try to distinguish them more clearly before answering.

Option C, no doubt about it. I'm just hoping the test doesn't ask me to draw the full mesh diagram from memory. That would be a real brain-teaser!
AN

Let's just hope the test focuses more on theory than on drawing diagrams.
BA

Yeah, drawing the full mesh diagram from memory would definitely be challenging.
EL

I agree, option C is the correct choice.

I'm leaning towards B, but I'm also curious if the answer has something to do with the 'ISP 2' part of the question. Maybe it's not as straightforward as it seems.

Dyan: True, it might not be as straightforward as it seems.

User 3: Could be, but C also seems like a possibility.
DY

User 2: Maybe it has to do with the connection to ISP 2.

User 1: I think the answer might be B.
TR

Haha, trick question! In a full iBGP mesh, the update should be sent to all routers in ISP 1. C is the way to go.
GE

User 2: Yeah, you're right. In a full iBGP mesh, that's how it works.
ON
Oneida

User 1: I think the answer is C, the update is sent to all routers in ISP 1.

I'm not sure about this one. My gut tells me it's D, but I'd need to double-check the BGP behavior in a full mesh topology.
YU
Yuki

Why do you think it's D?
HE
Henriette
2 years ago
Option C seems the most logical choice, as in a full iBGP mesh, the BGP update should be sent to all routers in the ISP 1 network.
NI
Nickole

C: So, it looks like option C is the best choice here.
EL

A: That's true, but in a full iBGP mesh, it's common practice to send updates to all routers.
KI
Kizzy

B: But wouldn't it be more efficient to just send it to specific routers?
WA
Wayne

A: I think option C is correct, the update should be sent to all routers in ISP 1.
AL
Alline

I disagree, I believe the answer is D.
YU

I think the answer is C.
