Explanation:
If you have two routers at the same location, and need to advertise the same internal networks,
quite often you will put the same network statements on both routers.
In this case, you would likely have external BGP peers on the routers, but you would also have an
internal BGP connection between the two routers.
This would result in each router locally injecting the network via the network statement, but you
would also receive an iBGP advertisement from your neighbor within your same AS.
