I have a question about non-clients in a route-reflector topology. Assuming all routers are in the same AS, you have a hub and spoke topology where the RR has three peerings with three different routers. Only two of those neighbors are configured as route-reflector-clients. In Doyle's routing TCPIP V. 2 pg. 127, it says that if a RR learns a route from a RR-client that route will be sent to the other RR-client as well as the non-client. I am under the impression that a non-client is simply a neighbor that is not configured as a RR-client in the RR. If this non-client was in a different AS, I can see this happening because that is EBGP, but IBGP assumes a full mesh, so how could the RR send this route to the non-client? Of course, I'm going on the assumption that a non-client is what I described previously. So I guess my question really is, what is a non-client?
TIA,
Danny
