BGP Interface
When we use BGP, it's mandatory to set the interface in BGP neighbor and make static route to the BGP neighbor peer ip?

Hi @HS08 ,
The interface here in the BGP neighbor settings is to specify the outgoing interface for peer connection.
And yes, you do need a static route via this interface to the BGP remote peer (the neighbor).

Jerry
