RE: Maximum-path ibgp

Hello,

The main purpose of this to improve the convergence time if you've multiple
route reflectors and the next hop is the same.

For your setup, it may not make a difference as you are only learning the
prefix from two PEs, this feature is usually used where you've multiple
Route-reflectors where route is only imported from the RR with the lower
loopback.
