BGP question

I have 2 routers connect to 2 ISPs:

ISP1 router--------My router1------My router2---------ISP2 router

My router1 configuration:

router bgp 11111

no synchronization

no bgp log-neighbor-changes

network 17.11.0.0

neighbor 69.231.141.153 remote-as 12345

neighbor 17.11.25.11 remote-as 11111

no auto-summary

My router2 configuration:

router bgp 22222

no synchronization

no bgp log-neighbor-changes

network 17.11.0.0

neighbor 167.13.192.145 remote-as 54321

neighbor 17.11.25.12 remote-as 22222

no auto-summary

I noticed my router2 routing table keeps changing and caused connectivity problems. It sometimes gets routes from ISP1 router. How does it happen? My router2 does not have direct session with ISP1 router. Anyone can help me?

Here is part of the routing table on my router2:

B 217.170.115.0/24 [20/0] via 167.13.192.145, 2w1d

B 216.221.5.0/24 [20/0] via 167.13.192.145, 1w1d

B 210.51.225.0/24 [20/0] via 167.13.192.145, 2w1d

B 209.136.89.0/24 [20/0] via 167.13.192.145, 2w1d

B 209.34.243.0/24 [20/0] via 167.13.192.145, 2w1d

B 205.204.1.0/24 [20/0] via 167.13.192.145, 6d23h

B 204.255.51.0/24 [20/0] via 167.13.192.145, 2w1d

B 204.238.34.0/24 [20/0] via 167.13.192.145, 2d14h

B 204.221.17.0/24 [20/0] via 167.13.192.145, 2w1d

B 204.17.221.0/24 [20/0] via 167.13.192.145, 2w1d

B 203.238.37.0/24 [20/0] via 167.13.192.145, 2w1d

B 203.34.233.0/24 [200/0] via 69.231.141.154, 00:00:43 (why this???)

It gets them from router1, via iBGP. By default, BGP doesn't change the next-hop when passing routes in iBGP. Router2 should learn the route to ISP1 Router through your IGP, so you shouldn't lose connectivity because of this. If there's some reason why this route can't be passed in your IGP, you should configure the iBGP neighbor sessions with the "next-hop-self" option.

Here is a link to the config I use. Works great.
