37.69 neighbor route-reflector-client

Command:

neighbor {<ip-address>|<TAG>} route-reflector-client

no neighbor {<ip-address>|<TAG>} route-reflector-client

Function:

Configure the route reflector client. The “no neighbor {<ip-address>|<TAG>}

route-reflector-client” command cancels this configuration

Parameter:

<ip-address>: Neighbor IP address

<TAG>: Name of peer group

Default:

Not configured.

Command Mode:

BGP route mode and address-family mode

Usage Guide:

The route reflection is used for reducing the peers when the internal IBGP routers inside AS are too

much. The client only exchanges messages with route reflector while the reflector deals with

message exchange among each client and other IBGP, EBGP routers. This command configures

itself as the route reflector, while specific peer group is as its client. Note: this configuration is only

available inside AS.

Example:

Switch(config)#router bgp 100

Switch(config-router)#neighbor 10.1.1.66 remote 100

Switch(config-router)#neighbor 10.1.1.66 route-reflector-client

Switch(config-router)#neighbor 10.1.1.68 remote 100

Switch(config-router)#neighbor 10.1.1.68 route-reflector-client

Switch(config-router)#
