Route Reflector Example
This example shows configuration for setting up route reflection for BGP. Route reflection is
used with IBGP speaking routers that are not fully meshed.
In the above diagram, router Nokia platform A is on AS 65525, and routers Nokia platform B,
Nokia platform C, and Nokia platform D are in AS 65526. This example shows how to configure
Nokia platform B to act as a route reflector for clients Nokia platform C and Nokia platform D:
You then configure platforms C and D and IBGP peers to platform D, as the example shows.
You configure inbound route and redistribution policies for AS 65526.
