The static route to the 0.0.0.0/0 network has a next hop of xe-0/0/0.0, which is a local interface. BGP does not accept static routes with a local interface as the next hop, because it cannot advertise them to other BGP peers. BGP requires a valid IP address as the next hop for static routes that are redistributed into BGP. To fix this issue, the static route should have a next hop of an IP address that is reachable via the xe-0/0/0.0 interface, such as the IP address of the eBGP neighbor. Alternatively, the next hop can be modified by using a route map when redistributing the static route into BGP12.

The other options are not correct because:

The as-path parameter is not required for redistributing static routes into BGP. The as-path attribute is automatically set by BGP when advertising routes to other BGP peers3.

A community string is not required for redistributing static routes into BGP. A community is an optional attribute that can be used to group routes and apply policies to them4.

The no-readvertise feature is not specified in the configuration. The no-readvertise feature is used to prevent routes learned from one iBGP peer from being advertised to another iBGP peer5.

A. On R1, enable Level 1 on the ge-0/0/1 interface.  In IS-IS, both levels (Level 1 and Level 2) are enabled by default when you enable IS-IS on an interface 1 .  Level 1 systems route within an area 2 .  If the destination is outside an area, Level 1 systems route toward a Level 2 system 2 . Therefore, enabling Level 1 on the ge-0/0/1 interface on R1 would allow packets to reach from R1 to R3.

D. On R3 enable Level 1 on the ge-0/0/4 interface Similarly, enabling Level 1 on the ge-0/0/4 interface on R3 would allow packets to reach from R1 to R3.

These explanations are based on the IS-IS configuration documents and learning resources available at Juniper Networks 1  and Cisco 3 4 .
