Administrator Guide

The first time you enter this command, the router configures as a route reflector and the specified BGP neighbors
configure as clients in the route-reflector cluster.
When you remove all clients of a route reflector using the no neighbor route-reflector-client
command, the router no longer functions as a route reflector.
If the clients of a route reflector are fully meshed, you can configure the route reflector to not reflect routes to
specified clients by using the no bgp client-to-client reflection command.
