The first lookup results in an IBGP route, to network 102.0.0.0/24.
Since the route to 102.0.0.1/24 is not an IGP route, the Layer 3 Switch cannot reach the next hop
through IP, and thus cannot use the BGP route. In this case, since recursive next-hop lookups are
enabled, the Layer 3 Switch next performs a lookup for 102.0.0.1 next-hop gateway, 10.0.0.1.
The next-hop IP address for 102.0.0.1 is not an IGP route, which means the BGP route destination
still cannot be reached through IP. The recursive next-hop lookup feature performs a lookup on
10.0.0.1 next-hop gateway.
This lookup results in an IGP route. In fact, this route is a directly-connected route. As a result, the
BGP route destination is now reachable through IGP, which means the BGP route is eligible for
installation in the IP route table. Here is the BGP route in the IP route table.
