Introduction
BGP route reflection
BGP confederation
EBGP
− EBGP prevents the routing loop through AS-PATH
attribute. Router that receives an update containing its
local AS number in the AS_PATH attribute from EBGP
peer knows that a routing loop has occurred. To prevent
routing loops, the router will ignore the update.
IBGP
− BGP router will not announce the update information
received from its IBGP peer to other IBGP peers.

An originator_ID is created by the first route reflector and will not be changed by
the subsequent route reflectors
The originator_ID attribute is 32 bits long, it should be received only from an
IBGP peer
It is the Router ID of:
− routes that are originated by the local AS:Router ID of the BGP speaker
that advertise the route
− routes that are not originated by the local AS:Router ID of the border
router in the local AS
A router which recognizes the ORIGINATOR_ID attribute should ignore a route
received with its ROUTER_ID as the ORIGINATOR_ID.
