[c-nsp] Redistributing static routes in BGP

[Ibrahim Abo Zaid]

Yes Gary this is a default behavior performed by BGP Scanner process which
validates NH reachability and manages BGP advertisements and BGP doesn't
advertise routes not exist in RIB

but if u configure a static route with NH as IP instead of interface , even
if the interface went down and its connected route removed from RIB , IOS
assumes NH IP will still reachable over supernet or default route and so the
route still in RIB although it is stale and still advertised in BGP .


but if you need to make BGP process reacts faster to NH reachability , you
can deploy NH address tracking feature (which is enabled by default in newer
IOS but its timers are tunable)
