Hi, this is Kunihiro.

Currently Zebra does not use router ID as neighbor's IP address
identifier.  So one must configure neighbor's IP address as TCP/IP
connection's source address or TCP/IP connection destination address.

>1999/03/22 00:35:37 OK I got BGP connection from host 207.204.248.34

It seems that there was a connection from 207.204.248.34.  Is this IP
address assigned to the gated machine?  If so below configuration may
work.

router bgp 65501
  bgp router-id 207.204.248.82
  neighbor 207.204.248.34 remote-as 7369
  neighbor 207.204.248.34 route-map set-nexthop out

I've just read RFC1771 and draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-08.txt.  It seems that
router identifier is for connection collision detection.  I'm not sure
other routing software or verndor software's convention about this.
Any comments or suggestions are welcome.
