Hi All,
Got a Doubt on BGP Route Reflectors. BGP uses route reflectors to simplify
the IBGP mesh configuration.
Say a RR reflects an IBGP route announced by RRclient-1 to another RR
client say, RRClient-2. The RR keeps the next hop of the IBGP network
announced by RRclient-1 un-altered while
iBGP is ultimately irrelevant.
hope that makes sense
Andy

Hi,
I suppose IBGP topology is star and to avoid single point of
failure , you could have any number of router reflectors within a cluster
but you are going back to the full mesh topology ! ) or use an efficient
IGP and redistribute it with BGP .
next-hop-self on the route-reflector will work here.

Ok, I'll try to clear up some odd thoughts there.
RR's simply allow the mesh to scale more gracefully, they do not modify path
information (ie the Next_hop attribute) anywhere unless explicitly told to
do so.
Hence,
In your example, RRClient which must be an ASBR (ie ebgp peering to outside
AS
small.
