Nice, but you don't show it as-path filtering your transits out. I frequently see people take something learned from transit A and sending it to transit B, and if it happens to be the backup path in-use for your customer, your transits will accept it and likely pick you as best-path and hairpin through your network.

Yeah, I left out the actual prefix-list contents, in hindsight I should have added it, so here it is. Also, a typo in the network statement, lol.
network 1.1.1.0 mask 255.255.0.0
ip prefix-list NETZ description The networks we advertise via BGP ip prefix-list NETZ seq 10 permit 1.1.1.0/16 ip prefix-list NETZ seq 1000 deny 0.0.0.0/0 le 32
You should be using 192.168.2.0 for documented examples,or at least private space. Configs like this tend to get cut and pasted into routers and get changed only when they don't work. I just had to change a router config a couple of months ago that a consult had set up using 11.0.0.0/24 and 12.0.0.0/24, for point to point links. -- Dan White
