config bgp route_reflector cluster_id
Description The route reflector and its clients together form a cluster. When a single route reflector is
deployed in a cluster, the cluster is identified by the router ID of the route reflector.
When the cluster ID is 0.0.0.0, the cluster is identified by the router ID. Otherwise, the cluster
is identified by the cluster ID.
The BGP cluster_id command is used to assign a cluster ID to a route reflector when the
cluster has one or more route reflectors. Multiple route reflectors are deployed in a cluster to
increase redundancy and to avoid a single point of failure. When multiple route reflectors are
configured in a cluster, they must be configured with the same cluster ID. This allows all route
reflectors in the cluster to recognize updates from peers in the same cluster and reduces the
number of updates that needs to be stored in BGP routing tables.
This command is only required for the reflector and not the client.
Parameters
<ipaddr> - Specifies the IP address of the cluster ID. Setting the cluster ID to 0.0.0.0 will
remove specifications of the cluster ID. The default value is 0.0.0.0.
Restrictions Only Administrator and Operator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To configure the cluster ID:
DGS-3627:admin# config bgp route_reflector cluster_id 10.100.200.1
Command: config bgp route_reflector cluster_id 10.100.200.1
Success.
DGS-3627:admin#
config bgp client_to_client_reflection
Purpose This command is used to configure the BGP client to the client reflection setting.
Syntax
config bgp client_to_client_reflection [enable | disable]
Description The command is only required for the reflector.
If the reflection is disabled, then the router will not reflect routes from the route reflect client to
other route reflect clients, but it will still send routes received from a non-reflecting client to a
reflecting client.
Parameters
enable - The reflector will operate in reflector mode.
disable - The reflector will operate in non-reflector mode.
Restrictions Only Administrator and Operator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To disable the client to client reflection:
DGS-3627:admin# config bgp client_to_client_reflection disable
Command: config bgp client_to_client_reflection disable
Success.
DGS-3627:admin#
config bgp confederation identifier
Purpose This command is used to configure the BGP confederation.
