Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

On some networks, if the clients of an RR establish full-mesh connections with each other, they can directly exchange routing information. Route reflection among clients is unnecessary. The undo reflect between-clients command can be used to prohibit the clients from reflecting routes to each other to reduce costs.

Prerequisites

Before running the reflect between-clients command, you must run the peer reflect-client command to configure the route reflector client.

Configuration Impact

After the undo reflect between-clients command is run, the clients of an RR are prohibited from reflecting routes.

Precautions

This command is valid only for the route reflector.

Example

# Disable the route reflection between clients (clients are fully meshed).
