JN0-363 · Question #95
Referring to the exhibit, where should next-hop-self-policy be applied to alter the next-hop value?
The correct answer is B. The policy is applied as an export policy for the group ext-64501. The next-hop-self-policy policy is used to alter the next-hop attribute of BGP routes. When you apply it as an export policy to an external BGP (eBGP) group, it changes the next-hop attribute of the routes being advertised to eBGP neighbors so that the next-hop IP address is…

Explanation
The next-hop-self-policy policy is used to alter the next-hop attribute of BGP routes. When you apply it as an export policy to an external BGP (eBGP) group, it changes the next-hop attribute of the routes being advertised to eBGP neighbors so that the next-hop IP address is the IP address of the router itself. This ensures that the eBGP neighbors use the local router as the next hop to reach these routes.
