Route Reflector Cluster A BGP-enabled router or BGP speakers. By default BGP speaker routers do not advertise iBGP-learned prefixes to iBGP peer routers - this has to be done to maintain loop prevention. RFC4456 introduces the route reflection feature which helps to remove the need of full mesh configuration between iBGP speakers routers. When the route reflector reflects a route, it creates and modifies an optional non-transitive attribute called CLUSTER_LIST by adding its own cluster ID to it. This attribute is used for loop prevention: when a BGP router receives update which CLUSTER_LIST contains router's own cluster ID, this update is discarded. Route reflector Route Reflector scalable alternative to an ibgp full mesh its allow a BGP speaker (route reflector –RR) to advertise route received from an ibgp peer to other ibgp peers. note:client update server. Server update to all the remaining clients. All client should establish neighbor with only servers . client will...
