hi, if the P is in the path for the PE and it is RR, does not make difference for the PE because if the P down the PE out of reach , also what model do you recommened as a dedicated RR, and if we have many countries how is the design of the RR will be,since we have some PE's will peer with different countries. are you align with me. how is the cluster id here need to be design if we will have three countries as a main countries,where many of the regional PE's will peer with different countries for redundancy. where we suppose to have RR and how is the cluster id here need to be ...

thank you, actually we have a network with two core routers,12000 (P's) and around 14 (PE) in different Cities  (7206VXR), Currently the two P's is the route reflector in same cluster and both of them in the same city. there will be new POP in new city so i want to have like two 7600 as P/PE/ASBR and  also play the role of Route reflectors,for this new RR's has to be in same cluster as the other RR's in the other city, because some of the PE's will be physicaly connected to the different cities for redundancy so may they need to peer with the RR's in the two cities.please can you advise what is the best for RR config here and the cluster id. ...
