QuestionQ25

VPN Architecture

Which two BGP attributes are used to prevent loops in a route reflector environment?

Choose two
  • A cluster ID
  • B local preference
  • C origin
  • D originator ID
  • E AS_PATH
Explanation

Route-reflector loop prevention uses ORIGINATOR_ID, which identifies the original iBGP advertiser so that router ignores a route returned to it, and the CLUSTER_LIST, to which reflectors add their cluster ID. A reflector discards an update when its own cluster ID is already present in that list.
