Hi Group,
Reading the Groupstudy archives, I have came across a number of references
talking about a hub & spoke configuration for BGP e.g. RTA is a hub router
(with point-to-multipoint), while RTB & RTC are spoke routers. All 3
routers are in the same AS. And there is a PVC connected between RTA to
RTB, as well as another one from RTB to RTC, but there is no PVC between RTB
& RTC, as a result... there might be a need to configure a RTA as a Route
Reflector etc.
My query is this ;-) Based on the above e.g., do I need to setup an
additional router in the middle of the 3 routers as a Frame-Relay Switch??
Or can the hub router (RTA) be configured with both with BGP configs (e.g.
BGP neighbors statements, route-reflector-client statements etc) together
with the point-to-multipoint config (for PVCs connectivity etc)??
N.B: I also found a diagram at BGP Command & Reference (by Parkhurst)... but
it only had a diagram without any configs.
Hope that I am making sense here ;-)
Best Regards,
Hunt Lee
