Direct protocol affects BGP

[Fabiano D'Agostino]

Hi Benedikt,
the nexthop is resolvable, indeed router1 can ping router2'nic in the same
network of router1, with direct protocol disabled. The scenario is:
PCa - R1 - R2 - PCb
With direct protocol enabled and bgp working: PCa can ping PCb
With direct protocol disabled and bgp working: PCa can't ping PCb
