[c-nsp] Redistributing static routes in BGP

[Gary Roberton]

Thanks for your replies.  This is what I came up with too.  Yes, the route
remains in the table if the next hop is reachable through a 0.0.0.0 route
for example.  I am trying out each scenario now so will list results for
everyones benefit.
