bgp cluster-id


Specifies the identifier for the route reflector cluster.

Syntax: [no] bgp cluster-id id-number

id-number

Cluster identifier of this route reflector. Valid values are integers from 0 and 4294967295.

Description: A router reflector cluster normally has a single route reflector. To avoid a single point of failure, you can configure a cluster with more than one route reflector. If more than one route reflector is configured for a cluster, all the route reflectors in the cluster must be configured with a cluster ID. This ID enables route reflectors to recognize route updates from route reflectors in the same cluster.

NOTE You can not modify the cluster ID if any neighbors are configured as route reflector clients.

Use the bgp cluster-id command to define the cluster ID when there is more than one route-reflector in the local autonomous system.

Use the no bgp cluster-id command to remove a cluster ID.

Factory Default: The router ID of the single route reflector in a cluster.

Command Mode: Router configuration.

Example: In the following example:

router(config)#router bgp 109

router(config-router)#neighbor 200.85.49.93 remote-as 109

router(config-router)#neighbor 200.85.49.93 route-reflector-client

router(config-router)#bgp cluster id 2000

router(config-router)#end

router#show ip bgp summary
