Re: bgp client-to-client reflection

I believe the intent here is that the RR would reflect
routes from routers that are not RR-clients to the
RR-clients. All other routes from the RR-clients
would not be reflected.

In this scenario the RR-clients would not have to peer
with the RR's non-RR-client peers. But, they would
have full mesh peering with each other for redundancy.

I guess I could see some cases where this might make
sense depending on the physical topology of the
network.
