Hi,
Confederations are indeed one way to get rid of having to have a full iBGP mesh
although you still will need a full iBGP mesh inside each AS part of the
confederation.
Most people do prefer route reflectors though, or if you have this HUGE
network you could
combine both... :)
Btw, there's information on this on CCO, in the BGP configuration guide.
Cheers,
Pablo
