Hi,
In quagga , does eBGP advertise prefix to the peer, issued via network
command, 1) without checking to see if prefix is in IGP or routing table 2)
or the prefix needs to be in FIB to advertise?

If  prefix need to be in FIB, how often (default) BGP scans FIB for
withdrawn routes, say as a result of interface down or such and stops
advertising prefix that are withdrawn from FIB?

I tried the documentation on the web and also searched(limited) the user
archive but dint get a clear answer.

According to Cisco, in cisco world under eBGP;
The *network* command works if the router knows the network that you
attempt to advertise, whether connected, static, or learned dynamically.

Any help or pointers appreciated

Thank you
charles
