Pls read this: This is from BGP Case Study 4
(Route-reflector section)

URL:
http://cio.cisco.com/warp/public/459/16.html#A24.0

When a route is received by a RR, it will do the
following depending on the peer type:

Route from a non-client peer: reflect to all the
clients within the cluster.

*In your case R3 is non-client peer, so R5 will see
the route originated by r4 as R1 will reflect this to
R5.

Route from a client peer: reflect to all the
non-client peers and also to the client peers.

*Here R3 will see the route originated by R7 since R3
is non-client peer and R5 is client peer

Route from an EBGP peer: send the update to all client
and non-client peers.

Hope this makes sense.
