Usage
Route reflectors are a solution for the explosion of iBGP peering within an
autonomous system. By route reflection the number of iBGP peers within an AS is
reduced. Use the
neighbor route-reflector-client
command to configure the
local router as the route reflector and specify neighbors as its client.
An AS can have more than one route reflector. One route reflector treats the other
route reflector as another iBGP speaker.
In the following configuration, Router1 is the route reflector for clients
3.3.3.3
and
2.2.2.2
; it also has a non-client peer
6.6.6.6
:
Parameter
Description
<

{
<ip-address>
|
<peer-group>
}
<ip-address>
The address of an IPv4 BGP neighbor, in dotted
decimal notation A.B.C.D.
<peer-group>
Enter the name of an existing peer-group. For
information on how to create peer groups, refer
to the
neighbor peer-group (add a neighbor)
command, and
When this parameter is used with this
command, the command applies on all peers in
the specified group.
