Please help,

From R1, i can ping the loopback IP(3.3.3.3) that was advertised via BGP. But from R3 cant ping the loopback IP's of the R1 that was advertise via BGP.

R1 ----EBGP---- R2

IBGP

R3

Kinly see below config:

R1

ip address 2.2.2.2 255.255.255.255

At first glance, it looks like you need to permit 2.2.2.2 in your LOOPBACKS access-list on R1

Thanks for the help Sir!

After permitting the 2.2.2.2, the loopbacks from R1 still cannot ping. Also I can ping the 2.2.2.2 using redistribute static under OSPF.

Please help

Look at what source your ping is using.

late_collision, we don't need "permit 2.2.2.2 in your LOOPBACKS" because then we advertise 2.2.2.2/32 via eBGP to R2 it's not best in BGP table, cause of exist static route point to 2.2.2.2 via R1. Therefore we don't advertise this route to any peer on R2. Also R3 have route to 2.2.2.2/32, via ospf, "redistribute static subnets" on R2.

edubillo, from you config, i'm don't see route connected of network on R2,R3 10.0.1.4/30 advertised to R1. You can add this on R2 like:
router bgp 200
network 10.0.1.4 mask 255.255.255.252

And them:
R3# ping 2.2.2.2
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 2.2.2.2, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/1 ms

Because ping in this case use source IP: 10.0.1.6.
