Please note that although you might be able to do this (I'm not enough of a
Cisco expert) with a rewrite rule or something, you will not necessarily
achieve the full functionality of RSd. What you will get is a
route-reflector.
As far as I know and someone correct me if I'm mistaken, a Cisco does not
maintain multiple best active routes to a destination seperately for each
peer. RSd for example may proporgate 1.2.3/24 with a NextHop of
192.168.10.123 to peer A but depending on how the policy works out, it can
also simultaneously propogate 1.2.3/24 with a NextHop of 192.168.10.234 to
peer B. The Cisco will instead propogate the same NextHop to all peers.
