Configuring Multiple RR Clusters in an AS
An AS can contain multiple IBGP route reflector clusters. In an AS with multiple
clusters:
• Each cluster has a unique ID.
• Within each cluster, RR clients are connected to RRs in a tree topology.
• Within the AS, clusters are connected in arbitrary topologies. (From the point
of view of the topology, a cluster is a mini-AS. Like an AS, a cluster can be
configured in an arbitrary way.)
To configure multiple RR clusters in an AS, complete the following steps:
1.
Associate a route reflector with a cluster.
2.
Establish a peer-to-peer session with a reflector in another cluster.
Using the BCC
To associate a route reflector with a cluster, go to the BGP prompt (for example,
box; ip; /jointfilesconvert/97454/bgp
) and enter
:
cluster-id
<cluster_id>
cluster_id
is the ID number (from 0 through 4,294,967,295) of the cluster where
the route reflector resides.
For example, the following command associates the route reflector with cluster 5:
/jointfilesconvert/97454/bgp#
cluster-id 5
/jointfilesconvert/97454/bgp#
To establish a peer-to-peer session with a route reflector in another cluster, go to
the BGP prompt and enter:
peer local
<local_reflector_address>
remote
<remote_reflector_address>
as
<as_number>
local_reflector_address
is the IP address on the local route reflector.
remote_reflector_address
is the IP address on the remote reflector in another
cluster.
as_number
is the AS where the remote reflector resides.
