It means that the prefix is locally generated.
Can you please paste o/p of 'show run | sec bgp'

Kashish,
R4#show ip bgp 10.6.0.0/24 BGP routing table entry for 10.6.0.0/24, version 19 Paths: (1 available, best #1, table Default-IP-Routing-Table) Advertised to update-groups: 2 Local 192.168.0.6 (metric 156160) from 192.168.0.5 (192.168.0.5) Origin IGP, metric 0, localpref 100, valid, internal, best Originator: 192.168.0.6, Cluster list: 192.168.0.5
Local means that it was learned from an ibgp neighbor. Since you have a cluster list appended, it would indicate that this is a route reflector client. The next hop is 192.168.0.5 and the advertising router is 192.168.0.6 (the Originator).
HTH,
John
