Hey..

Thanks, that will do it then..

 

I have yet another Q. r1 should only learn routes from r1 if lo1 is up. I
guess this is some kind of conditional routing,

But I don't know how to configure..

Yes, you can make R1 as a route-reflector for sw1. And in fact, if my memory
still serve, and please someone point out if I am wrong..

If you don't set R1 as route-reflector for sw1 (which I assume sw is alot
inside the same AS), sw1 won't receive the route from R1.

It's because if you only set R1 as a route-reflector-client of R5, all R5
route will only advertise 1 more hope further into the local AS if that
receiver is a same AS RR-client. But I can't 100% confirm this..

Another solution will be make R1 become a normal iBGP peer to R5.

Hi group..

I am trying to get something to wor, bu tare unsure of what exactly to do..
This is the toplology :

Switch1--------r1--------r5-----------r2

                              |

                             R4

R1, r2,r4 and r5 is in a frame-relay nbma network. All the routers form a
single AS. I would guess that the normal thing here would be to
set r5 as route-reflector. But Switch 1 have to been reach from the network
by using bgp only.. so my question is. If I make r5 RR for r1, r2
and r4. Can I also then make r1 as route-reflector for switch1. Would this
be a scenario that is good to configure, or is there some other solution
that would be a better solution..

Thanks
