Too difficult.. i have some more eBGP peers.. distinguish eBGP routes by
neighbor.. i needed a quick-hack ;-)

Yep! That's a quicker hack :-)

I don't have such an option on my JunOS [by chance.. so I cannot crash my
M20 .. :-))) ]

traceroute <desired destination> bypass-routing ?
Possible completions:
  <[Enter]>            Execute this command
  gateway              Gateway to route through
  inet                 Force traceroute to IPv4 destination
  inet6                Force traceroute to IPv6 destination
  no-resolve           Don't attempt to print addresses symbolically
  routing-instance     Routing instance for traceroute attempt
  source               Source address to use in outgoing traceroute packets
  tos                  IP type-of-service field (IPv4) (0..255)
  ttl                  IP time-to-live value (or IPv6 maximum hop-limit
value)
  vpn-interface        VPN interface for traceroute attempt (IPv4)
  wait                 Time to wait for a response (seconds)
  |                    Pipe through a command

Thanks!
