I just read somewhere we can use

set origin .... command in a route-map to alter the origin codes for
incoming routes

So if this works (which it should) you need to configure a route-map on R2
to mend the origin code for prefixes 1.1.1/24 & 2.2.2/4 and set it to
igp...(someone please correct me here if i am wrong)


thanks,
SA
