Configure BGP route reflectors
BGP route reflectors are intended for Autonomous Systems with a large mesh and they reduce the amount
of BGP control traffic. With route reflection configured properly, IBGP routers are not fully meshed within
a cluster but all receive routing information.
Note: Using Multipath and Add Path simultaneously in a Route Reflector is not recommended.
Configure clusters of routers where one router is a concentration router and others are clients who receive
their updates from the concentration router.
Use the following commands in the CONFIGURATION ROUTER BGP mode to configure a route
reflector.

• ip-address or peer-group-name: enter the
neighbor's IP address or the peer group's
name.
• as-path-name: enter the name of a
configured AS-PATH ACL.
• in: apply the AS-PATH ACL map to inbound
routes.
• out: apply the AS-PATH ACL to outbound
routes.
