Problem with F5 Zebos router reflectors

Hello everyone

 

 

We have configured several iBGP sessions from our F5 Load Balancer against a 7300 router configured with VRF instances, where each instance has its own iBGP session to the F5. Due to the split horizon rule in iBGP that states that any route learned from an iBGP peer will not send updates to another peer, we have configured the F5 like a router reflector server and each VRF instance as a router reflector client.

 

 

When we type the commands, everything seems to work fine. The F5 should announce the routes his router reflector clients have to the others, but the problem is that each VRF instance does not learn the routes from its neighbor instances. The F5 knows it is learning the route form a router reflector client and should announce it to the other router reflector clients. We don’t’ know where the problem could be since the configuration is quite simple and should work with no further additional commands. If you have any advice, it would be appreciated. Thank you.
