Dedicated Route Reflectors

[Serge Vautour <sergevautour () yahoo ca>]

Hello,

We're in the process of planning for an MPLS network that will use BGP for signaling between PEs. This will be a BGP 
free Core (i.e. no BGP on the P routers). What are folks doing for iBGP in this case? Full Mesh? Full Mesh the Main POP 
PEs and Route Reflect to some outlining PEs? Are folks using dedicated/centralized Route Reflectors (redundant of 
course)? What about using some of the P routers as the Centralized Route Reflectors? The boxes aren't doing much from a 
Control Plane perspective, why not use them as Route Reflectors.

Any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Serge
