Usage
Information
When you apply a route map to outbound routes, only routes that match at least
one section of the route map are permitted.
If you identify a peer group by name, the peers in that peer group inherit the
characteristics in the Route map used in this command. If you identify a peer by IP
address, the Route map overwrites either the inbound or outbound policies on that
peer.
neighbor route-reflector-client
Configure the router as a route reflector and the specified neighbors as members of the cluster.
S5000
Syntax
neighbor {ip-address | peer-group-name} route-reflector-client
To remove one or more neighbors from a cluster, use the no neighbor {ip-
address | peer-group-name} route-reflector-client command. If you
delete all members of a cluster, you also delete the route-reflector configuration
on the router.
Parameters
ip-address Enter the IP address of the neighbor in dotted decimal
format.
peer-group-
name
Enter the name of the peer group.
All routers in the peer group receive routes from a route
reflector.
Defaults Not configured.

Usage
Information
A route reflector reflects routes to the neighbors assigned to the cluster. Neighbors
in the cluster do not need not be fully meshed. By default, when you use no
route reflector, the internal BGP (IBGP) speakers in the network must be fully
meshed.
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.
