[AusNOG] Microtik bgp issues

[iQ Net]

Hi Everyone,

Thank you to all that reached out to me. I truly appreciate it.

I'm an idiot and didn't have the correct IP for my peer, what a fresh set
of eyes can do :)

I must have looked over the config for 2 days and didn't notice it until it
was pointed out to me.

Thanks guys!
