Usage Information
A route reflector reflects routes to the neighbors assigned to the cluster. Neighbors
in the cluster do not need not to 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.
This command automatically restarts the neighbor session for the configuration to
take effect.

Commands
• bgp client-to-client reflection — enable route reflection between the route
reflector and the clients.
neighbor send-community

all routes with that attribute belong to the same community grouping.

[extended | standard]
To disable sending a COMMUNITY attribute, use the no neighbor {ip-address
| peer-group-name} send-community command.
Parameters
ip-address Enter the IP address of the peer router in dotted decimal
format.
peer-group-name Enter the name of the peer group to send a COMMUNITY
attribute to all routers within the peer group.
