By default, the number of routes
that a router can receive from a

peer or peer group is not limited.

Ignoring the ORIGINATOR_ID attribute of BGP routes

In general, BGP saves the ORIGINATOR ID attribute of BGP routes received from the router reflector to

make sure that those routes will not be advertised back to the route reflector. But BGP might need to

advertise BGP-VPN routes with different Route Distinguisher (RD) attributes back to the route reflector. For
more information about RD, see MPLS Configuration Guide. To meet this requirement, use the peer

ignore-originated command to ignore the ORIGINATOR_ID attribute of BGP routes received from the

route reflector.
Before you execute the peer ignore-originatorid command, make sure that no routing loop exits among
route reflectors in the network.
The peer ignore-originatorid also enables BGP to ignore the CLUSTER_LIST attribute of BGP routes.
To ignore the ORIGINATOR_ID attribute of BGP routes:

Configuring BGP route dampening

By configuring BGP route dampening, you can suppress unstable routes from being added to the local
routing table or from being advertised to BGP peers.
To configure BGP route dampening:
