Configuring the Next Hop Attribute

You can use the peer next-hop-local command to specify the local router as the next hop of routes

sent to a MBGP iBGP peer/peer group. If load balancing is configured, the router specifies itself as the

next hop of route advertisements to the multicast iBGP peer/peer group regardless of whether the

peer next-hop-local command is configured.
