From Jeff Doyle: "Routing TCP/IP" pag 306:
"The rule that clients must peer only to their RRs has two exceptions. First,
a client itself can be a route reflector for another cluster. This allows
'nesting' of ruote reflection clusters or the creation of a hierarchy of
clusters, as illustrated in Figure 2-40 of Chapter 2.
The second exception is when there is a full IBGP mesh among the clients, as
shown in Figure 2-41 of Chapter 2. Fully meshing the clients provides some
increased robustness. When such a design is used, you should configure the
route reflector with the command no bgp client-to-client reflection."
Why is it not possible to have some clients of the same cluster to peer
between eachother and at same time with their RR?
Is it really so bad?
Thanks,
Bit.
