You can do that by simply watching the RIP broadcast and filter your own external address. This is what ampr-ripd also does.
Wouldn't this only work for networks in the encap with assigned gateways? I was planning to use it with direct/BGP allocations, not tunneled, so there would be no entry in the encap.

I think there is no entry in the portal either... at least there need not be one.
Anyway, I never do really basic config using a method this complicated. Risk is to high that it fails, e.g. when the portal is offline. I keep a file with important config items as a shell script and source it wherever it is required.
