BGP - Troubleshooting Lab

In this blogtorial, I will be posting configs of the routers and a few commands. Please leave me comments on what you think the issue maybe.

Consider this topology below. 
Objective: 
  • 11.11.11.11/32 should be pingable from R4. 
  • Static routes or artificial routes cannot be installed anywhere!! 
Hint -- There are three issues.

The entire config can be downloaded here so you can lab it up in GNS3.

Consider a very simple topology below and we'll dive right in.
