Well, that's up to your network design. If the front-end is a real VLAN, then it needs to be spanned (Cisco OTV is good for this BTW). If not, then it's up to your BGP to swing the route. If it is a real-VLAN of course, that's when you'll need to edit the config on the fly as you sync it...

 

 

Like I said... A lot depends on the exact design of your network... Whether you NAT at the border or not, whether the VLAN's are spanned via OTV or similar etc.
