BGP Route Reflectors offer a solution for what IBGP issue?

  • large number of EBGP peers
  • IGP redistribution into BGP
  • large number of TCP sessions
  • BGP timer mismatch

Explanation: In a classic full-mesh IBGP environment, the number of required TCP sessions grows exponentially with the number of routers. Route reflectors solve this scalability issue by eliminating the need for a full mesh, thereby significantly reducing the number of TCP sessions each router must maintain.
