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.

Usage
A route reflector reflects routes to the neighbors assigned to the cluster. Neighbors in the
Information
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.
