How does a route reflector process an update from a nonclient IBGP peer?

  • The update is sent to all peers.
  • The update is dropped.
  • The update is sent to EBGP peers and clients.
  • The update is sent to EBGP peers.

Explanation: According to route reflector split-horizon rules, when a route reflector receives an update from a non-client IBGP peer, it reflects that update to all of its clients and also advertises it to its EBGP peers. It does not, however, send the update to other non-client peers.
