User Guidelines
Normally, a router does not re-advertise BGP routes received from an internal
peer to other internal peers. If you configure a peer as a route reflector client,
this router will re-advertise such routes. A router is a route reflector if it has
one or more route reflector clients. Configuring the first route reflector client
automatically makes the router a route reflector.
If you configure multiple route reflectors within a cluster, you must configure
each route reflector in the cluster with the same cluster ID. Use the bgp
cluster-id command to configure a cluster ID.
An external peer may not be configured as a route reflector client.
When reflecting a route, BGP ignores the set statements in an outbound
route map to avoid causing the receiver to compute routes that are
inconsistent with other routers in the AS.
