I'm seeing what looks like inconsistent information being
reported by a route reflector client (192.168.100.14).  

Below are two lines of output from debug ip bgp events and
debug ip bgp updates:

  *Mar  3 09:06:26.265 UTC: BGP: 192.168.100.10 rcv UPDATE about
  26.0.0.0/24 -- denied
  *Mar  3 09:06:26.265 UTC: BGP: 192.168.100.10 Prefix 26.0.0.0/24
  rejected by inbound soft reconfiguration

Notice that prefix 26.0.0.0/24 is received but is being denied/
rejected.  This prefix is being advertised by this router to a
route reflector (192.168.100.10),  and it's being reflecting
back (which appears to violate RFC 1996)

Now, CCO reports that running the "show ip bgp neighbor
received-routes" should show:

  "(Optional) Displays all received routes (both accepted
   and rejected) from the specified neighbor."

When I run this command on the RR client and looking for
the routes received from the RR, I see the following:

rtr-2514#show ip bgp neighbors 192.168.100.10 received-routes 

BGP table version is 13, local router ID is 192.168.100.14
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i -
internal
Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete

   Network          Next Hop          Metric LocPrf Weight Path
*>i22.0.0.0/24      192.168.100.10         0    100      0 i
*>i24.0.0.0/24      192.168.100.5          0    100      0 i


Notice that 26.0.0.0/24 is not present.   Is there a difference
between "denied" and "rejected" routes?  If, on the route 
reflector, I run "show ip bgp neighbor 192.168.100.14 advertised-
routes", I see that this route is in fact advertised:

rtr-2610#show ip bgp neighbors 192.168.100.14 advertised-routes 

BGP table version is 17, local router ID is 192.168.100.10
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, i -
internal
Origin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete

   Network          Next Hop            Metric LocPrf Weight Path
*> 22.0.0.0/24      0.0.0.0                  0         32768 i
*>i24.0.0.0/24      192.168.100.5            0    100      0 i
*>i25.0.0.0/24      192.168.100.14           0    100      0 i
*>i26.0.0.0/24      192.168.100.14           0    100      0 i

In order to be compliant with RFC 1996, when one does a 
"show ip bgp neighbor X advertised-routes", one should never
see X as the next hop, right?

THanks
