Hi all:

what is "indirect route"? i have route received from a route reflector and it is marked as "Indirect":

lab-l3vpn.inet.0: 17 destinations, 25 routes (17 active, 0 holddown, 0 hidden)
+ = Active Route, - = Last Active, * = Both

192.168.0.6/32     *[BGP/170] 00:02:12, localpref 100, from 192.168.0.4
                      AS path: I
                      Indirect

here 192.168.0.4 is the RR.
