The device under test uses local AS which is identical to remote AS, effectively turning an EBGP session into an IBGP session. It should establish the BGP sessions with X1 and X2, and propagate BGP prefixes between them. The test also checks (as a warning) whether DUT propagates "real" IBGP routes over local-as IBGP session. Failure to do that indicates that the next hop is not set correctly, or that DUT is not working as a route reflector toward local-as IBGP neighbor.
