reflect between-clients (BGP-IPv4 unicast address family view)

Function

The reflect between-clients command enables route reflection among clients through the RR.

The undo reflect between-clients command disables route reflection among clients through the RR. If the clients of an RR are fully meshed, you can prohibit route reflection among clients through the RR to reduce the cost.

By default, route reflection among clients through the RR is enabled.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

On some networks, if the clients of an RR establish full-mesh connections with each other, they can directly exchange routing information. Route reflection among clients through the RR is unnecessary. The undo reflect between-clients command can be used to prohibit the clients from reflecting routes to each other to reduce costs.

Prerequisites

An RR has been configured.

Configuration Impact

After the undo reflect between-clients command is run, the clients of an RR are prohibited from reflecting routes.

Precautions

The reflect between-clients command is run only on RRs.

Example

# Enable route reflection among clients through the RR.
