Configuring a route reflector client

A BGP peer can be configured as a route reflector client.
  1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode. 
    device# configure terminal
  2. Enter the router bgp command to enable BGP routing. 
    device(config)# router bgp
  3. Enter the local-as command to configure the autonomous system number (ASN) in which your device resides. 
    device(config-bgp-router)# local-as 1000
  4. Enter the neighbor route-reflector-client command to configure a specified neighbor to be a route reflector client. 
    device(config-bgp-router)# neighbor 10.1.1.1 route-reflector-client

The following example configures a neighbor with the IPv4 address 10.1.1.1 to be a route reflector client. 

device# configure terminal
device(config)# router bgp
device(config-bgp-router)# local-as 1000
device(config-bgp-router)# neighbor 10.1.1.1 route-reflector-client
