Greetings all, In a redundant RR design, I have several questions that don't seem to be clearly covered in RFC1966. 1) Does a given route-reflector have to peer with the other route-reflectors in its own cluster ?? 2) If yes to 1), do the RRs in the cluster peer with each other as clients or non-clients ?? 3) If no to all of the above, do you just put X numbers of route reflectors into the AS and each client etc. in the cluster now peers with X # of RR's ? Above and beyond all of the above (actually depending on all of the above :) ), if my client router hears something from RR1, will it also hear it from RR2 ?? Is there a race condition ? Thanks in advance. -------------------------------------------------- Brandon Applegate, CCNA : Network Administrator http://www.one.net : brandon@one.net --------------------------------------------------

Yes. All route-reflector servers within your network should be fully meshed.
2) If yes to 1), do the RRs in the cluster peer with each other as clients or non-clients ??
All route-reflector servers peer as non-clients.
Above and beyond all of the above (actually depending on all of the above :) ), if my client router hears something from RR1, will it also hear it from RR2 ?? Is there a race condition ?
Read BGP 101. A client router is just like any other BGP router, the protocol allows for a BGP router to hear multiple announcements for the same destination. The router will choose the best destination based on the usual BGP decision rules. -Steve

Why dont you setup multiple clusters and have one rr for each cluster? it is possible to have more then one rr per cluster.. but i dont know if this is what you want to do. latah, -andrew

It appears that UC Berkeley has been off line for the majority of the day. AS 25 disappeared sometime earlier today. Anyone with some knowledge out there? ======================================================================= Michael Lucking Michael@Lucking.COM

"Flood in Berkeley, fixed in a couple hours" is what the UC Davis NOC told me at 12:30pm PDT. Stephen
