By default, all IBGP peers in the autonomous system must be fully connected.
Moreover, neighbors do not notify the learned IBGP routes.
III. Configuring to send default route to a peer group
If you only need to notify a default route between a pair of BGP peer instead of
transmitting the default route within the whole network, you can use the peer
default-route-advertise command.
Perform the following configuration in BGP view.

peer group
peer group-name
