The key point is that, in a router talking iBGP, the route to the NEXT_HOP received by an iBGP neighbour *MUST* be known through means other than BGP. This is not to say that the route need be dynamic -- a static default route would do just fine.
Not necessarily. You just get a more pronounced stepping effect when you learn routes whose next-hops are in the same protocol.
Either you have to configure next-hop-self or use static or use other IGP, otherwise you'll end up with flapping routes in your network. BGP cannot use a route for next-hop-self address derived by itself, as far as I know. /Hakan
