Title : BGP Route Reflection - An Alternative to Full Mesh IBGP
Author(s) : T. Bates, et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-idr-rfc2796bis-02.txt
Pages : 12

The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is an inter-autonomous system
routing protocol designed for TCP/IP internets. Typically all BGP
speakers within a single AS must be fully meshed so that any external
routing information must be re-distributed to all other routers
within that AS. This represents a serious scaling problem that has
been well documented with several alternatives proposed.
This document describes the use and design of a method known as
"Route Reflection" to alleviate the the need for "full mesh" IBGP.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-idr-rfc2796bis-02.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
