TX-Loop-Detection

When activated, loop detection influences the behavior of the BGP instance as follows:

  1. The BGP instance does not propagate any routes to neighbors, whose AS numbers are in the AS path of the route.
  2. The BGP instance sends local routes to iBGP neighbors only if the neighbor is a route-reflector client and the local BGP instance is a route reflector.
  3. The BGP instance does not distribute a route to neighbors who have already learned it.

These measures reduce the unnecessary sending of messages that a neighbor might reject due to its own loop detection.

Attention: In certain VPN/ARF scenarios, the TX-loop detection must be disabled.
