! ============================================================================ ! role-route-reflector.cfg -- RR-specific overlay for CORE routers ! ============================================================================ ! Apply ONLY on routers that act as iBGP route reflectors for their AS. ! Skip on the client routers -- there this overlay is a no-op at best and ! creates inadvertent reflection at worst. ! ! Complements 01-bmp-basic.cfg (defines the BMP-MONITORED neighbor-group) ! and 02-bgp-ls.cfg (which activates the LS AF toward peers). The ! RR-specific bit here is `route-reflector-client` under the AFs for ! every client neighbor. ! ! Two conventions worth preserving: ! - Put every RR client into a `RR-CLIENT` neighbor-group so the ! reflector attribute is set once at group scope. ! - Combine with BMP-MONITORED via `use neighbor-group` at the neighbor ! itself -- IOS-XR only allows one `use neighbor-group` per neighbor, ! so nest common bits by inheritance if you need multiple groups. ! ============================================================================ router bgp ! ! Cluster-id -- set to the RR's loopback so RR<->RR pairs recognize each ! other's reflected routes and don't loop.
